Some small hints about your mkgmap configuration: * I propose to use precompiled sea files (e.g. http://www.navmaps.eu/wanmil/sea_20121020.zip). It's faster and takes less memory.
Hi WanMil, is it possible to generate the precompiled files by myself? I haven't found anything in the wiki how to do this. I remember that I need a special tool, which have to be compiled. Would it be possible to publish a binary? If libraries are problematic, they could be only listed in a txt-file and the user downloads this separate from other sources.
Is it possible to use the shape-files from http://openstreetmapdata.com/data ?

Hi Henning, there is a readme how to precompile the sea files: http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/websvn/filedetails.php?repname=mkgmap&path=%2Ftrunk... It would be possible to publish a binary. Maybe we can integrate into the existing ant scripts if you provide it. I think the libs are not problematic. These are some part of the geotools lib. You can use the shape files from openstreetmapdata. I am using them myself. Beware that you need the land polygons and not the sea polygons. It's better to use the split ones because the others are memory exhaustive. WanMil
