Hi yary, can't help with the index question, but changes to the style have no effect when you just merge *.img files to a gmapsupp with mkgmap. In fact, most of your options are only used when you convert OSM data with mkgmap (this is what garmin.openstreetmap.nl does). Fore more info on this see: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mkgmap and esp. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mkgmap#Creating_a_map and http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/doc/index.html Gerd yary wrote
Hi all, I've been learning mkgmap and have had good results. So far I've downloaded tiles from garmin.openstreetmap.nl, and the boundaries and sea zip files linked to from there, and successfully combined them into a 1.3GB routable & indexed gmapprom.img to replace the one that came with my Garmin nuvi 200. (Which I have backed-up)
One small issue- with the factory maps, searching for an address would ask "Search County (or all)", then "State/Province (or all)" before asking for the street address. With the OSM maps, my nuvi is asking for "City" instead of "State/Province."
How can build a map that indexes on "Region" (State, Province) boundaries instead of "City" boundaries? Or even, indexes on both levels, that could be useful also.
Here's how I built the map, on a Windows box with many drives:
java -Xmx1650m -jar mkgmap.jar --gmapsupp --precomp-sea=i:\maps-new_style\sea_20161017.zip --generate-sea --route --drive-on=detect,right --process-destination --process-exits --index --bounds=i:\maps-new_style\bounds_20161017.zip --location-autofill=is_in,nearest --x-split-name-index --housenumbers --add-pois-to-areas --remove-ovm-work-files "i:\maps-new_style\NE-USA,Can"\*.img
I'm guessing the answer is in the "style" and not on the command-line... I tried copying the default style, editing the "address" file, and using the new style with "--style-file=..." but it didn't seem to have any effect. I didn't really know what I was doing, so I reverted the changes.
