mdr address index with gmapsupp and macroadtrip installers
by Clifford Nolan 04 Dec '09

I might have stumbled onto part of the problem with the Ireland map for addresses. When I ran mkgmap with --location-autofill=3 I got the following debug info: Locator City Map contains 5 entries Locator Places Map contains 8717 entries Locator City Map contains 6 entries after resolver run 1 Still unresolved 8716 Locator City Map contains 8722 entries after resolver run 2 Still unresolved 0 Most of the "cities" in Ireland are tagged as villages or hamlets, etc and we do not have postcodes outside Dublin city. If this is a problem, could the --location-autofill be switched to look for villages and hamlets too to help fill in the addresses? Cliff

Commit: r1416: Don't test for presence of "oneway" tag in addNodeToWay().
by svn commit 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

Version 1416 was commited by markb on 2009-12-04 09:23:30 +0000 (Fri, 04 Dec 2009) Don't test for presence of "oneway" tag in addNodeToWay(). One of my changes to Marko's patch was wrong. I added a test for oneway tag in addNodeToWay() as a similar test was being done elsewhere but that was a mistake as the tags are processed after the node references, so the test would always have failed. Oops.

mkgmap appears to ignore --family-name
by Marko Mäkelä 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

The Nuvi user reported that he had problems routing from Tapiola, Espoo to Kumpula, Helsinki but it is now working OK, both for me (Edge 705) and him. Maybe it was just bad source data. He also reported that the map says "family name" instead of something like "Osm 03.12.2009". I can repeat that on my Edge 705. Has this been changed recently, perhaps related to some MDR stuff? It used to work last time I looked, several months ago. Here is the relevant command from my osm2img.sh: java -jar mkgmap.jar -c mkgmap.args --family-name="OSM 03.12.2009" The whole script is at http://www.polkupyoraily.net/osm/ http://www.polkupyoraily.net/osm/files/osm2img.sh http://www.polkupyoraily.net/osm/files/mkgmap.args Best regards, Marko

View .img files on a Mac -- Create .tdb from .img
by Adrian 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

I am trying to view .img files on a Mac using Garmin RoadTrip. (I haven't tried using QLandKarte GT because I think it would be a big job to build Qt and then QLandKarte GT.) I am using Mkgmap to create .tdb and overview .img files and then Gmapi Builder to create an installation package for RoadTrip. (Incidentally, Java 1.6 is available in Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard). You need to run Utilities/Java Preferences and move Java SE 6 above the other versions of Java in the list.) I downloaded some .img tiles from Lambertus (garmin.na1400.info) and the process worked. This saved Lambertus' computer some processing! I downloaded an archive from openmtbmap.org. This contained a set of .img tiles, and again the process worked. I downloaded a multi-tile gmapsupp.img from www.raumbezug.eu and (after processing) RoadTrip showed me a blank overview map covering only part of the area in question, and no detailed map. The same happened with a multi-tile .img from fredericbonifas.free.fr. There may be more than one problem here, but I noticed that the .tdb files created by Mkgmap only contained a reference to the last tile. I believe the .tdb file should contain references to all the tiles. I downloaded a MapSource package from sites.google.com/site/talkytoasteruk. This contained a set of .img tiles and when I ran the process, Gmapi Builder gave an error "Missing part: 0 of" when processing the last tile. The last tile in this package is of a different nature from the other tiles, so I moved it out of the folder and reran Mkgmap and Gmapi Builder. When I launched RoadTrip, it quit straightaway with an error in "TDB_RegionDir.cpp:102". One difference between these tiles and all the others, is that these were created with cGPSmapper. So problem could be in cGPSmapper, Mkgmap or Gmapi Builder. I'm not clear how I could even identify where the problem lies.

Routing issue in Hameln
by Chris-Hein Lunkhusen 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

In german city Hameln turn-restrictions are used like hell, but they don't seem to work. <http://www.bilder-space.de/show.php?file=02.12Ft6hRZHIiEanBbI.gif> On the left side the only_straight_on restriction is not applied, on the right side there is a "funny" routing. MapSource-Setting is Car/Shortest from A to B. Just tried the latest (1413) with default style, routing is the same like in my map show on the picture. This is the area: <http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.10494&lon=9.3719&zoom=16> Chris

routing oddity
by Valentijn Sessink 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

Hi list, A routing oddity on Mapsource and my Garmin Nuvi: http://osm.org/go/0E6U9XKEb-?layers=0B00FTF When I'm driving on the A1 highway, it always sends me down the motorway_link, then up on the motorway_llink again. Could this be because the bridge over the Weteringweg makes the A1 consist of 3 parts, while driving over the motorway_llink has only 2 (or maybe they're connected in mkgmap, so it's only 1 part?) I'm just guessing wildly here; the routing oddity is always there though, so you might want to take a brief look. Best regards, Valentijn

Problem with args file
by Carlos Dávila 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

I'm processing the same data using almost equal parameters. The only difference are the *.args files. Below is the first one (peninsula.args), that compiles without errors: product-id=314 family-id=14 family-name=OSM España country-name=ESPAÑA country-abbr=ESP mapname: 63240001 description: ES-Madrid input-file: 63240001.osm.gz mapname: 63240002 description: ES-Vigo input-file: 63240002.osm.gz mapname: 63240003 description: ES-Valladolid input-file: 63240003.osm.gz mapname: 63240004 description: ES-Valencia input-file: 63240004.osm.gz mapname: 63240005 description: ES-Barcelona input-file: 63240005.osm.gz product-id=314 family-id=15 family-name=OSM Portugal country-name=PORTUGAL country-abbr=POR mapname: 63240006 description: PT-Lisboa input-file: portugal.osm The second one (spain.args) gives the following error: Too many blocks. Use a larger block size with an option such as --block-size=2048 or --block-size=4096). This is the content: product-id=314 family-id=14 family-name=OSM España country-name=ESPAÑA country-abbr=ESP mapname: 63240001 description: ES-Madrid input-file: 63240001.osm.gz mapname: 63240002 description: ES-Vigo input-file: 63240002.osm.gz mapname: 63240003 description: ES-Valladolid input-file: 63240003.osm.gz mapname: 63240004 description: ES-Valencia input-file: 63240004.osm.gz mapname: 63240005 description: ES-Barcelona input-file: 63240005.osm.gz As you see, it is the same than the first one without the last part of it, so what is processed with the second args file is also processed with the first one without problems. Has anyone an explanation for this? As use of --block-size is not recommended in options file, I would like to know if you have any other suggestion on how to proceed. My parameters are: time java -Xmx600m -enableassertions -jar mkgmap.jar --route --latin1 --code-page=1252 --gmapsupp --series-name="OSM-Iberia-n" --index --road-name-pois --ignore-maxspeeds --remove-short-arcs --add-pois-to-areas --adjust-turn-headings --report-similar-arcs --link-pois-to-ways --location-autofill=1 --drive-on-right --check-roundabouts --check-roundabout-flares --style=mio --delete-tags-file=quitar_is_in -c peninsula.args/spain.args Regards, Carlos

Compiling Mkgmap failes
by Lambertus 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

I'm having problems compiling Mkgmap, maybe someone here is able to help with that: Before compiling I removed all java stuff, then installed sun-java6-jdk on my ubuntu installation. Then downloaded Mkgmap from SVN, ran 'ant dist' as per Mkgmap wiki page and got the following error: > ant dist Buildfile: build.xml prepare: compile: [javac] Compiling 317 source files to /home/lambertus/garmin/test/mkgmap/build/classes [javac] failed to read ecj.jar (reconfigure with --with-ecj-jar): /usr/share/java/eclipse-ecj.jar [javac] failed to load org.eclipse.jdt.internal.compiler.batch.Main from ecj.jar: /usr/share/java/eclipse-ecj.jar [javac] java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.jdt.internal.compiler.batch.Main not found in java.net.URLClassLoader{urls=[file:/usr/share/java/eclipse-ecj.jar], parent=gnu.gcj.runtime.SystemClassLoader{urls=[file:/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-launcher.jar,file:/usr/share/java/xmlParserAPIs.jar,file:/usr/share/java/xercesImpl.jar], parent=gnu.gcj.runtime.ExtensionClassLoader{urls=[], parent=null}}} [javac] at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(libgcj.so.10) [javac] at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(libgcj.so.10) [javac] at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(libgcj.so.10) [javac] at com.sun.tools.javac.Main.<clinit>(Main.java:91) [javac] at java.lang.Class.initializeClass(libgcj.so.10) [javac] at java.lang.Class.forName(libgcj.so.10) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.compilers.CompilerAdapterFactory.doesModernCompilerExist(CompilerAdapterFactory.java:145) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.compilers.CompilerAdapterFactory.getCompiler(CompilerAdapterFactory.java:100) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Javac.compile(Javac.java:1058) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Javac.execute(Javac.java:882) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.UnknownElement.execute(UnknownElement.java:288) [javac] at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(libgcj.so.10) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.dispatch.DispatchUtils.execute(DispatchUtils.java:106) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.Task.perform(Task.java:348) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.Target.execute(Target.java:357) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.Target.performTasks(Target.java:385) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.Project.executeSortedTargets(Project.java:1337) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.Project.executeTarget(Project.java:1306) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.helper.DefaultExecutor.executeTargets(DefaultExecutor.java:41) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.Project.executeTargets(Project.java:1189) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.Main.runBuild(Main.java:758) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.Main.startAnt(Main.java:217) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher.run(Launcher.java:257) [javac] at org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher.main(Launcher.java:104) BUILD FAILED java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError at java.lang.Class.initializeClass(libgcj.so.10) at java.lang.Class.forName(libgcj.so.10) at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.compilers.CompilerAdapterFactory.doesModernCompilerExist(CompilerAdapterFactory.java:145) at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.compilers.CompilerAdapterFactory.getCompiler(CompilerAdapterFactory.java:100) at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Javac.compile(Javac.java:1058) at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Javac.execute(Javac.java:882) at org.apache.tools.ant.UnknownElement.execute(UnknownElement.java:288) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(libgcj.so.10) at org.apache.tools.ant.dispatch.DispatchUtils.execute(DispatchUtils.java:106) at org.apache.tools.ant.Task.perform(Task.java:348) at org.apache.tools.ant.Target.execute(Target.java:357) at org.apache.tools.ant.Target.performTasks(Target.java:385) at org.apache.tools.ant.Project.executeSortedTargets(Project.java:1337) at org.apache.tools.ant.Project.executeTarget(Project.java:1306) at org.apache.tools.ant.helper.DefaultExecutor.executeTargets(DefaultExecutor.java:41) at org.apache.tools.ant.Project.executeTargets(Project.java:1189) at org.apache.tools.ant.Main.runBuild(Main.java:758) at org.apache.tools.ant.Main.startAnt(Main.java:217) at org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher.run(Launcher.java:257) at org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher.main(Launcher.java:104) Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at com.sun.tools.javac.Main.<clinit>(Main.java:106) at java.lang.Class.initializeClass(libgcj.so.10) ...19 more Total time: 1 second That error suggests that Eclipse needed to be installed, so I installed it. Unfortunately compiling after that resulted in the same error again. The file ecj.jar is not referenced in the build.xml, 'ant clean dist' resulted in the same error. The compiler used is: javac 1.6.0_15 Any ideas?

--add-poi-to-areas customization?
by Ben 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

Hi guys, whilst its a great feature for some areas such as shops, its rather useless for others, such as natural=rock, where there might be areas and POIs tagged with. Is there a way to have POIs generated from the areas for certain polygons only? Thanks, Ben
