multi-word street search
by Michał Rogala 18 Dec '14

18 Dec '14

Hello! I've a problem regarding street search. In Poland (and I suppose few more countries also may have this issue) person-named streets can have two forms - long one: Miroslawa Dudka or short one: Dudka there is no standard for tagging such names in OSM. Problem is that Garmin/Mapsource search function is matching names from the beginning of the string, so if I enter "Dudka" it will find all streets named "Dudka" but not "Miroslawa Dutka". Do you have any idea how can I deal with such issue? best regards Michal Rogala

Hi, The option is described in the wiki, and I find a peace of source in the HighwayHook that evaluates it, but it doesn't work. What is missing?

Question reg. points with extended type
by GerdP 13 Apr '13

13 Apr '13

Hi, when mkgmap builds an index (the mdr file), it reads the points from the img file. Up to now, points with extended types are ignored by this routine. I wonder if this is a GARMIN restriction or a limit in mkgmap ?

Routing issue to POI
by Enrico Liboni 06 Apr '13

06 Apr '13

Folks, I'm sometime getting routing issues to some POIs - most seems ok but some are always showing the problem. I'm wondering if what I'm hitting is the problem described at: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mkgmap/known_issues#add-pois-to-areas_so… Here's what happens: * In my garmin device I select a poi * the device calculates the route, but the purple path displayed does not follow real streets (it goes mostly parallel to them - see below pictures) Any idea? In the example the POI name is: Where To->Point if Interest->Hospitals "Ospedale Ca' Foncell" - it's near Treviso, Italy) http://imageshack.us/a/img829/3130/leftt.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img198/3915/overviewer.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img6/1766/poiv.jpg I'm using splitter r299, mkgmap r2540 (same issue with older version), fresh maps from geofabrick and command line is: java -Xmx2000M -jar ./mkgmap/mkgmap.jar --family-name="OSM Ita and Alps" --description="OSM Ita and Alps" --route --remove-short-arcs --add-pois-to-areas --bounds=bounds --location-autofill=bounds,nearest,is_in --index --gmapsupp --output-dir="./data/" ./data/6*osm.pbf Many thanks as usual!!!

Address Search Debugging
by Valerii Pekarskyi 04 Apr '13

04 Apr '13

Hello, Can anyone tell me how can I check countries/regions/cities/streets/housenumbers that mkgmap converts to my img file? I would like to check it while or just after the conversion, before loading map set to my Garmin unit or to the MapSource. Why I want such information? I am trying to make that "full address search" that is announced on the Mkgmap page on the OpenStreetMap wiki, and have a lot of troubles with it: 1) there is no house search at all (is it not done yet?) 2) some cities have street search while others do not and I have troubles with separating ones from others 3) I heard there are two search indexes could be generated with mkgmap - could anyone provide a bit more details? Which indexes are used on Dakota and on Nuvi, for example, and which are used by MapSource? How can I check they are generated as I expected I am converting Ukraine with a bit changed style of Max Vasilev (original here:https://velo100mapper.googlecode.com/svn/trunk) and my changed styles that I am trying to make working are here: https://github.com/Larry0ua/ua-convert/tree/master/mkgmap-stranger/stranger…. If someone is interested he could find generation parameters a folder up. I am sorry if that question was already written to this mail list before me, but search given nothing to me. Best Regards, Larry0ua

Suppressing dead-end-checks for parking entrance/exit
by Marko Mäkelä 02 Apr '13

02 Apr '13

Hi, I would like to suppress warnings for oneways leading to or from underground parking when the entrance and exit are not connected by underground lines. One of these two parking sites is using a relation to group the entrance and exit together. 2013/02/26 10:33:43 WARNING (RouteNode): 63240005.osm.pbf: Oneway road (http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/187642343) goes nowhere at http://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=60.86977&mlon=26.70146&zoom=17 2013/02/26 10:33:43 WARNING (RouteNode): 63240005.osm.pbf: Oneway road (http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/135634060) comes from nowhere at http://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=60.86846&mlon=26.70092&zoom=17 2013/02/26 10:33:43 WARNING (RouteNode): 63240005.osm.pbf: Oneway road (http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/207169562) goes nowhere at http://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=60.86960&mlon=26.70261&zoom=17 I tried adding fixme=continue in the points file: resources/styles/default/points Index: resources/styles/default/points =================================================================== --- resources/styles/default/points (revision 2498) +++ resources/styles/default/points (working copy) @@ -79,7 +79,10 @@ amenity=library [0x2c03 resolution 24] amenity=nightclub [0x2d02 resolution 24] amenity=nursing_home [0x2b04 resolution 24] -amenity=parking [0x2f0b resolution 24 default_name 'Parking'] +# Disable dead-end-checks for parking entrance/exit +entrance=* | amenity=parking_exit { add fixme=continue } +amenity=parking | amenity=parking_entrance | parking=* +{add fixme=continue} [0x2f0b resolution 24 default_name 'Parking'] amenity=pharmacy [0x2e05 resolution 24] amenity=place_of_worship [0x2c0b resolution 24] amenity=police [0x3001 resolution 24] It did not suppress the warnings, because the way parser would interpret the original tags for nodes, not processed ones. Any ideas how to resolve this? I do not feel like adding checks for the parking and entrance tags to the way parser. Best regards, Marko
