Introduction:
I'm still fairly new to GIS and have only had about 3 weeks experience. I set up an OSM server locally with .osm.pbf data and it worked just fine. When I pulled the map in the browser, which implemented leaflet, all the names of streets, buildings, and other objects were already included in the data.
The Problem:
To increase my knowledge I went on to create a TinyOWS server with WFS-T standardization. To get the data for this server I pulled multiple states in the form of shapefiles from http://download.geofabrik.de/. When I load these shapefiles into QGIS I get all the streets, buildings, etc.., but no labels and names for any of the information. I can't find much helpful information on the internet for this, which means I'm thinking of model all wrong, or I'm visiting the wrong resources.
Question:
How do I get labels for streets, building, etc..., for shapefiles?
Thanks in advance for your help.
