Moin, finally I got my eclipse environment running and was able to build mkgmap from source. So the next step was my first extension of mkgmap. Until now a single OSM element was converted into a single garmin element, i.e. the first one in the style file with the matching expression. I have extended the style definition by two commands (stop and continue), to allow the generation of multiple elements. A classic conversion rule has a syntax like: amenity=restaurant [0x2a00 resolution 20] With my extension this is equal to amenity=restaurant [0x2a00 resolution 20 stop] and has the meaning: If this rule is used, no further rules will be applied to the element. If this line is changed now to amenity=restaurant [0x2a00 resolution 20 continue] mkgmap will convert a matching OSM element into a garmin Element type 0x2a00, but afterwards it will check, whether another rule is matching for the same osm element. So this will allow, that for the same item additionally a tourism=hotel [0x2b01 resolution 20] rule might be applied. My modification is working on points as well as on lines or polygons, i.e. it will also help with barrier=fence problem. There are two problems with my modification: 1. The POI generation for an area will not work, with multiple conversion rules. 2. I do not know, how to provide a proper patch for my modification, so I just attached the modified java-files (based on mkgmap-r1087). I hope you can incorporate the modification into your mkgmap and give it a try. Without any change to the style, the modification should not change anything. As a try, you could add the continue command to all point rules and all barrier rules. What do you think about it? Gruss Torsten
