A Docker image that packages a complete OpenStreetMap PNG tile server, based on the switch2osm Ubuntu guide. It imports .osm.pbf extracts into PostgreSQL and serves rendered map tiles with optional automatic updates.

Use cases

• self-host an openstreetmap tile server
• render map tiles from an osm.pbf extract
• serve custom map tiles for a web app with leaflet
• run an offline openstreetmap tile server
• keep osm map data up to date automatically

When to choose

• you want a one-command OSM tile server without manually installing postgres, mod_tile, and renderd
• you need tiles for a specific region from a Geofabrik extract
• you want automatic replication-based updates for bounded extracts

When to avoid

• you need vector tiles or a custom map style out of the box
• you want a managed/hosted tile service rather than running your own infrastructure
• you need planet-scale rendering with heavy tuning
