Re: [mkgmap-dev] Make --add-pois-to-areas default?

Hi Hanno,

I just noted with a garmin map from kleineisel.de that my local supermarket is not listed.

The reason is that it's an area, not a point. I think this is caused by not applying --add-pois-to-areas (?)

I think it's reasonable to make this option the default and only disable it by request. It should be the common case that one wants pois generated also if they are areas.

Should I make a patch for that?

Personally, I prefer mkgmap to not add stuff to the map unless I ask it to do that. I think it's better to request that something extra gets added rather than requesting that the extra stuff is removed. Cheers, Mark
