Commit: r1216: Added ability to display bounding boxes of route centres.
by svn commit 22 Sep '09

22 Sep '09

Version 1216 was commited by markb on 2009-09-22 10:40:17 +0100 (Tue, 22 Sep 2009) Added ability to display bounding boxes of route centres. For diagnostic/development purposes, it's now possible to display the bounding boxes of the route centres by using: --route-center-boundary=TYPE Where TYPE is the Garmin line type to use (decimal, not hex). Not documented in options because it's only useful for developers.

Splitting an country borders?
by dom 21 Sep '09

21 Sep '09

Hi, is it possible to use or to set the splitter up in that way, that eg a europe map is split at the country borders? So it would be great to get a mapset for each country out of the europe mapset. Do you think this is possible? Thanks, Marco

Splitter r95 - improved command line handling, tile naming based on location
by Chris Miller 20 Sep '09

20 Sep '09

I've finally found the time to clean up and check in a couple of changes to the splitter that have been in the pipeline for a while: - Improved command line handling. Now provides usage instructions, error messages when invalid parameters are specified, and it is easier to maintain the code. - Tiles can be named based on the area they cover. To use this, download one of the cities files from http://download.geonames.org/export/dump/ and point to it with --geonames-file=cities<xxx>.zip. The splitter will then try to name each tile sensibly based on the biggest city in the tile. No doubt this logic can be improved in the future but it's hopefully still quite useful as it stands. There is one compatibility issue that I know of with the new command line parsing code. Builds prior to r95 supported both --mapid and --mapname for specifying the map ID. The new code doesn't support multiple names for the same parameter so only --mapid will work now. If you are using --mapname in any scripts/tools, please change this to use --mapid. Or alternatively, if that's problematic then please complain and I'll consider adding support for --mapname back in. Sorry for any inconvenience this change might cause you. Chris
