Dear Marko, Thanks for the explanation. I've checked my old builds and there aren't any data outside the Philippines. I'll check the latest extract if there by getting only the coastlines ways using osmosis and josm. On Wed, Sep 8, 2010 at 3:03 PM, Marko Mäkelä <marko.makela@iki.fi> wrote:
Dear Maning,
Unless your map extract is a perfect island, you may have to move the coastline endpoints to make mkgmap happy. I think it is, the Philippines is an island/archipelagic country:
What matters is the map extract that you are using. If it contains half-cut islands from, say, Indonesia, then mkgmap may have problems with that.
coastline generation for Finland, I both adjusted the Geofabrik cutting polygon (it took a few iterations with Frederik Ramm) and moved the endpoints of the mainland coastline to the tile boundaries Do you mean using splitter? I am not using splitter at the moment since the data is small enough as one img.
No, I mean the map extract that I can download from http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/europe/. To my knowledge, it is cut by Osmosis, using a cutting polygon. I requested the polygon from Frederik and adjusted it a little, so that all of the Finnish administrative boundary was included in the extract and all lake multipolygons near the border were intact.
I do use splitter to split the map extract further (currently into 6 tiles), but that is a separate issue.
