leisure=recreation_ground
by Greg Troxel 11 Nov '09

massgis import has polygons with leisure=recreation_ground, and this is logically like landuse=recreation_ground. Apparently mapnik already has support for this, and the following makes such parks show up nicely: Index: resources/styles/default/polygons =================================================================== --- resources/styles/default/polygons (revision 1366) +++ resources/styles/default/polygons (working copy) @@ -39,6 +39,7 @@ leisure=park [0x17 resolution 20] leisure=pitch [0x19 resolution 20] leisure=playground [0x17 resolution 20] +leisure=recreation_ground [0x19 resolution 18] leisure=sports_center | leisure=sports_centre [0x19 resolution 20] leisure=stadium [0x19 resolution 19] leisure=track [0x19 resolution 18]

[PATCH] not-equal filter to remove redundant labels
by Clinton Gladstone 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

I find the attached patch quite useful. It adds a style filter which checks if one tag value is identical to another, and if so, it filters out the value. This can elegantly reduce redundant information in labels, for example when name and ref are identical. The filter is called "not-equal" and takes a tag name as an argument. Example: "${int_name|not-equal:name}" will only return the international name if it is not the same as the "normal" name. I have the following line in my points file: place=* {name '${name} (${name:en|not-equal:name})' | '${name} (${int_name|not-equal:name})' | '${name}' } This will print either the English name or the International name in brackets, but only if they are not equal to the name. Thus I get "Köln (Cologne)" in my maps, but not "Karlsruhe (Karlsruhe)" (instead, just "Karlsruhe" is printed). Although I have not tested this yet, the filter could be applied to names and refs in roads. For example if both the name and ref are set to "B12", the filter would prevent the road from being labelled as "B12 B12". All feedback is appreciated. Cheers.

Hi Nakor, Remember that routing issue you reported about a month or so ago and I could not find detect what was wrong at the time? Well, today's commit to limit the number of points in a way appears to have fixed that issue as well. Cheers, Mark

remove-short-arcs config bug
by Ralf Kleineisel 10 Nov '09

10 Nov '09

There seems to be a bug in the way the config file for mkgmap is read. All options I tried can be switched on with "=yes" and off with "=no". E.g.: transparent=no tdbfile=yes route=yes If I try the same with the remove-short-arcs option (i.e. "remove-short-arcs=yes") I get an error for r1364. If I put "remove-short-arcs" on a line without "=yes" it works. java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "yes" at sun.misc.FloatingDecimal.readJavaFormatString(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Double.parseDouble(Unknown Source) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.reader.osm.xml.Osm5XmlHandler.<init>(Osm5XmlHandler.java:131) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.reader.osm.xml.Osm5MapDataSource.load(Osm5MapDataSource.java:71) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.MapMaker.loadFromFile(MapMaker.java:148) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.MapMaker.makeMap(MapMaker.java:56) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main$1.call(Main.java:187) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main$1.call(Main.java:185) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerRun(Unknown Source) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(Unknown Source) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(Unknown Source) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) Exiting - if you want to carry on regardless, use the --keep-going option

Commit: r1364: write() now reports assertions caught when constructing LinePreparer.
by svn commit 10 Nov '09

Version 1364 was commited by markb on 2009-11-09 23:52:28 +0000 (Mon, 09 Nov 2009) write() now reports assertions caught when constructing LinePreparer. If LinePreparer has a problem, report it and then return rather than letting the assertion terminate the program. Like r1349 but for write(OutputStream).

indexing stuff
by Valentijn Sessink 10 Nov '09

10 Nov '09

Hello list, I tried the indexing stuff for the first time. It does work a little bit: it will find the location of streets if I select them from the list of all streets. However, I can't seem to search for streets or cities. Also, the country of all these is "country" and in the list of cities, there is an "ABC" behind the names - could that be a hard coded state name? (I suppose the above is just how it works now and nothing to worry about). Best regards, Valentijn
