Hi. I am very new to making maps so therefor in case i am asking something obvious it is because i don't know better yet. I am trying to generate a map for a country (trying sweden) and observe a strange thing with --output-dir for mkgmap (r4585). Files are written to other directories than to the --output-dir Starting at a base directory i have created this structure: ├── gmapsupp └── se ├── splitted └── tiles The idea is that for sweden i will store splitted pbf files in a separate directory and tiles in a separate. at first i download data to the ./se/ directory: wget https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/sweden-latest.osm.pbf then split the data, adding the --output-dir=se/splitted/ this works fine. now i want to generate the *.img tiles from the splitted files. Doing this from the base directory. java -jar ../mkgmap/mkgmap-r4585/mkgmap.jar --read-config=se/splitted/template.args --remove-short-arcs --family-name="NORDIC" --country-name="Sweden" --country-abbr="SWE" --description="Sweden routable." --mapname=77700001 --family-id=770 --latin1 --net --route --index --split-name-index --output-dir=se/tiles/ se/splitted/*.osm.pbf When i run this from the base directory numbered *.img files and ovm_*.img files are first written to the base directory and then last to the target directory. After the program finishes there are files both in base directory from where i executed the program, as well as the directory given in output-dir. The files in the output-dir directory are larger than the ones in the base directory. Is this an error or should i take care of both sets of files? Trying to use --index to create a searchable index or street names, for this, do i need to add a separate file/style to make it work? if yes, are there examples which you can point to? Regards Karl
