mkgmap gets stuck on Kosovo
by Felix Hartmann 05 Mar '10

05 Mar '10

When I try to compile Kosovo from Geofabrik, with my style: https://svn.origo.ethz.ch/openmtbmap/ it gets stuck infinitely. Default style passes without problem. I know it's not the style that broken (compiles clean on every geofabrik country but South-America where it gets stuck too, however on index creation), but something only rendered using the style that triggers the bug. mkgmap does not output any error message, simply gets stuck.

Index in gmapsupp
by Nakor 05 Mar '10

05 Mar '10

Hello, I know that mkgmap does not include the index in the gmapsupp file. If you want this you have to use MapSource to build the gmapsupp. Is there any plan for mkgmap to support this? What are the technical limitations that prevents it to do it? Thanks, N.

mkgmap hangs on this type of way
by Peter & Suzie 05 Mar '10

05 Mar '10

I have noticed for the last 2 weeks the mkgmap was hanging but nothing in a the change log jumped out as someting that may have caused it. After some debugging I have tracked it down to ways like: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/29416921 The debug log shows it stops when it hits one of these, I fixed a few by splitting the way and remove the roundabout tag from the incoming way.

[PATCH] Reduce the resolution of natural=coastline
by Marko Mäkelä 05 Mar '10

05 Mar '10

I would like to commit this patch, to bring natural=coastline to the same level with other water features (natural=water, landuse=reservoir, waterway=river). This patch would reduce the size of the Finland map by about 200 kilobytes and speed up map browsing at low resolution (wide zoom). With this patch, with full map detail on the Edge 705, both natural=water polygons and natural=coastline lines will be displayed at 30km or closer, and disappear at 50km or further. Any objections? Best regards, Marko

transparent overlays breaks address-index on GPS
by Gert Münzel 05 Mar '10

05 Mar '10

Hi, Is there anyone else who has tried to use a transparent overlay on an mkgmap builded map which is containing address-index, eg. openmtbmap.org maps?. Everytime i tried it, the index no more works on the gps. Instead using the same overlay with an original garmin map which contains a address-index, this index stays alive on the GPS.? Any ideas? cheers Gert

Commit: r1594: The patch closes all ways having both endpoints on the same side outside the bounding box. In this case it is not necessary to check if closing the way intersects the way itself.
by svn commit 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

Version 1594 was commited by steve on 2010-03-04 23:40:41 +0000 (Thu, 04 Mar 2010) The patch closes all ways having both endpoints on the same side outside the bounding box. In this case it is not necessary to check if closing the way intersects the way itself. This fixes most (but not all) of the outstanding tile splitter problems. - Bugfix: if a polygon was splitted by the bounding box into different distinct polygons only the first of it was taken. Now all distinct polygons are processed. (thanks to Torsten Leistikow) - WanMil

splitter and multipolygon
by Matteo Gottardi 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

Hi all, when the splitter split a multipolygon composed by more than one outer member (example: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/51237752 ), the result is incorrect. Is there any way to fix them? -- * Matteo Gottardi | matgott(a)tin.it * ICQ UIN 20381372 * Linux - the choice of a GNU generation * GPG Fingerprint: * B9EE 108F 52C8 D50C B667 B1F2 AB56 8A01 BA3D 36A1

[PATCH v1] - when removing short arcs, don't zap looped ways whose ends almost touch
by Mark Burton 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

The short arc removal code was removing (non-short) arcs when their ends were close enough to be considered the same point. Now it just leaves them be. Please test this patch if possible because I have reworked the short arc removal code (and some badness could have crept in). You will probably find some (loopy) ways appearing in your maps that were not there before because they were being trashed. Garvan, can you try this patch or shall I send you a mkgmap.jar? Mark

Bounds problem with streets
by Tim 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

Hello, i have attached a screenshot of my Oregon to explain the problem. As you can see, the streets are not "connected" correct. I have made the map with a self made typ file and an extracted OSM file. Is there a special attribute i must set, when i compile the IMG file, or how can i solve the problem? Greetz, Tim
