Hi. I only observed today that when i run mkgmap (4921) i get lots of messages such as the below. I can't say if it existed earlier, i simply didn't watch to much in the logs. SEVERE (HousenumberGroup): full/splitted/77700746.osm.pbf: Internal error: ExtNumbers.rasterLineNearPoint() found no point, cannot improve address search for road id=52829593, North Farm Road SEVERE (ExtNumbers): full/splitted/77700746.osm.pbf: internal error, distance to road too large, road id=52829669, Oak Tree Drive house 3(1) http:// www.openstreetmap.org/node/2867200804 Is it something to worry about? Regards Karl

Looks like Geofabrik today is causing maps to look like a spider's web! Have tried UK and Luxembourg. Regards Nick

building=house without addr:housenumber
by Gerd Petermann 10 Jun '24

Hi all, for OSM mapping purposes I like to have the possibility to add a poi for each residential (house,apartments,farm,...) building polygon that - doesn't have a addr:housenumber=* tag AND - doesn't contain a node with addr:housenumber=* AND - doesn't have a node on the outline (part of the way) with addr:housenumber=* I want to render a POI with a text like "Hnr ?" so that, when I cycle near such a building, I can decide whether I try to find out the house number. I think there is currently no way to do this with mkgmap since we don't have something like a "contains" style function. I can't remember if we even thought about this when the is_in function was added? My current work around is to use JOSM as a preprocessor but that works only for small maps. Gerd

Commit r4921: fix split() so that there are no gaps between the 4 children
by svn commit 10 Jun '24

10 Jun '24

Version mkgmap-r4921 was committed by gerd on Mon, 10 Jun 2024 fix split() so that there are no gaps between the 4 children With high precision coordinates, some points were not added to the tree because they were within this gap. This quadtree implementation is only used by the flood blocker code which is not used when precomp-sea is used. http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/websvn/revision.php?repname=mkgmap&rev=4921

Germany specific rule for Fahrradstraße traffic_sign=DE:244.1
by Gerd Petermann 02 Jun '24

Hi all, the default style doesn't know about the tag bicycle_road=yes. In Germany, this is signed with traffic sign DE:244.1 . The meaning - without further signs - is bicycle=designated maxspeed=30 vehicle=no There is an ongoing discussion in Germany about the mapping. I wonder if the default style should be changed to evaluate the bicycle_road=yes tag? We would probably need country specific rules. ciao Gerd
