Commit: r2671: Do not always set drive-on-left flag to false if option precomp-sea is set
by svn commit 18 Aug '13

18 Aug '13

Version 2671 was committed by wanmil on Sun, 18 Aug 2013 Do not always set drive-on-left flag to false if option precomp-sea is set In case a tile has mixed sea/land content and uses the precomp-sea option the precompiled sea tiles are loaded by an OsmMapDataSources instance. This creates a an option less StyledConverter which sets the drive-on-left flag to false. This overrides the drive-on-left/right option of the config file. This change adds an internal option "ignore-drive-on-left" which does not initialize the drive-on-left flag in the StyleConverter. This option is only set by the SeaGenerator when loading precompiled sea tiles.

Commit: r2670: Ensure thread safe handling for the drive-on-left/right flag
by svn commit 18 Aug '13

18 Aug '13

Version 2670 was committed by wanmil on Sun, 18 Aug 2013 Ensure thread safe handling for the drive-on-left/right flag The drive on left flag is set via a static method. This was not thread safe when using more than one thread. The flag is now stored as ThreadLocal variable which ensures that the value is used only in the current thread.

Basecamp 4.2.2 Inter-tile routing problem
by Steve Brophy 18 Aug '13

18 Aug '13

Has anyone experienced problems with the latest version of Basecamp routing across OSM tiles? If I have Routing configured to avoid Interstates, I get large detours. With Interstates not avoided, routing works as before. It doesn't matter whether the transportation method is Car or Bicycle. See attached for an example. I get the problem for every route I have tried crossing a tile boundary. Steve

Converting S-57/ENC -> Garmin Format?
by Nick Hughes 17 Aug '13

17 Aug '13

Hi Folks, I'm looking for a method to convert S-57/ENC NOAA marine charts to Garmin format. I suspect similar functionality would also be useful for pulling this data into OSM format as well. NOAA updates their vector based charts regularly, so it's a good data source now. My research has shown there doesn't exist a utility to do this and I'm considering developing a utility. I'm a software developer and reviewed mkgmap, GDL ogr and OpenCPN, all of which have some of the functionality to put this together. The mkgmap Java source is pretty extensive and well organized, so I'm hoping to start with this as a basis or add to the project. It looks like the an S-57 "reader" would be required to get the data through mkgmap. So a new reader would be created in mkgmap.reader.s57. I'm also noticing a more code for "sea" in sea.optional. Any reason why this requires different algorithm for conversion? I see there are dependencies on Geotools, however unsure why. I'm new at the whole map processor, however am willing to learn. Any pointers are appreciated. Thanks, Nick

bridges as polygons
by nwillink 15 Aug '13

Interesting to see that Garmin caters for bridges as polygons (surface cover areas) with HGT_DP as an additional height attribute. This would/could avoid the old draworder problem of lines. At the moment it seems mkgmap does not allow for such a possibility. It made be think about the following: polygons can get parsed as lines , ie pedestrian,forest etc but lines ,however thick, can not be parsed as polygons, unless they are drawn as polygons. Just a thought. -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/bridges-as-polygons-tp5773691.html Sent from the Mkgmap Development mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Commit: r2668: PartFilter extract 1) from end, 2) initial and final ranges.
by svn commit 13 Aug '13

13 Aug '13

Version 2668 was committed by steve on Tue, 13 Aug 2013 PartFilter extract 1) from end, 2) initial and final ranges. Use negative numbers to take a part from the tail of the value list. Use the "<" or ">" operator (in addition to ":") in order to return a concatenation of all the parts before or after a certain part. The default behavior is not changed and this come at the expense of just 2 logical "IF" more when no operators are specified. Example, if the value is "Aa#Bb#Cc#Dd#Ee" part:#:1 returns Aa part:#:-1 returns Ee part:#:-2 returns Dd part:#>1 returns Bb#Cc#Dd#Ee# part:#<5 returns Aa#Bb#Cc#Dd# part:#<-1 returns Aa#Bb#Cc#Dd# - Enrico Liboni
