Hi Bernd, I fear I can't follow. I would expect that you run splitter once to create the tiles. You run mkgmap once for each layer with a different --description for each layer. I would not use template.args for this. I prefer to use the write-kml option in splitter. I load the file in JOSM to see what tile contains e.g. data from my hometown. Gerd Bernd Weigelt wrote

I think Bernd should either not use the template.args file or add --description=xyz before --gmapsupp ?
I never looked at it: What tool shows the description of an individual tile and where?
Hi Gerd template.args shouldn't overwrite mkgmap's description, while splitter's description has to much limits
splitter's description is not the best solution, when you created more then one layer(=gmapsupp.img) for a region, because you can't get something like bonn_20150503_1700_basemap oder bonn_20150503_1700_fixme, only the description you set in template.args, here bonn_20150503_1700. or you have to run splitter for every layer. splitter and my dach extract takes ~ 9 minutes per run
with mkgmap's description i can created different descriptions, but then i can't use template.args. and with mkgmap's description i can see more the one installed gmapsupp of bonn
But template.args with cities15000.zip is a good possibility to find out in which tiles which city is, see the splitter.log, maybe it is usable in different ways.
