A poorly organized and poorly documented pile of scripts I use to manipulate TMS mosaics and GDAL based WMS maps

Table of contents: tms/ - TMS management scripts osm2poly.pl - convert .osm to .poly. This is not my code! WebMaps.pm - Gist code for the below scripts. fetch-poly.pl - fetch polygon of TMS from Bing/Google/Yandex. Gets broken pretty often due to changes in the services. Last tested May 2017 for Bing. fetcher.pl - same as fetch-poly.pl, works on rectangle copier.pl - Extract a (smaller) rectangular TMS catalog out of a bigger one. Should be upgraded to support polygons. web2wms.pl - Run WMS server on top of TMS mosaic files, hasn't been in use for many years, since JOSM supports special TMSes natively. Most likely broken.

wms/ - WMS management scripts, used to build layers for mapserver. This stuff is strongly focused on building a congiguous slippy map of Soviet Military maps, that can be downloaded from different sources (e.g. rutracker.org, poehali.org). Maps quality varies, and they all are in different image formats, etc. So, the strategy is: first, merge multiple sheets belonging to the same projection sheet (рус. лист) into single file; second, provide WMS service that brings all these sheets as congiguous slippy map. To avoid conversion of downloaded pre-merged files, this may be achieved as virtual conversion. Finally generate .shp file embracing this all and configure it in the mapserver. Makefile - Having all the merges sheets in place, build .vrts and final index.shp. nom.pl - Convert from Soviet sheet name to Lat/Lon of corners. Vice versa conversion seems to be not done yet? gs.map - Sample mapserer file to serve the resulting index.shp.

wms/merge - Having mosaic of georeferenced sheets, that belong to the same projection sheet, merge them into one file. Usually used on stuff taken from poehali.org. MyGDALtools.pm - Gist code for get-corners.pl. get-corners.pl - Take out those GCPs that belong to corners of sheet. gs-merge.sh - Merge pile of small sheets into big one using GDAL.
