In germany we have done some optimication concerning the index search. We have changed a lot of the admin_level names. In order to benefit from this changes I have tried to create the europe bounds. But this wasn't successful - I have tried it with mkgmap r2164 First try (Windows 7): java -Xmx7000M -jar ./tools/mkgmap/mkgmap.jar --createboundsfile=europe.osm.pbf --bounds=europebounds -> out of memory exception Second try (by Georg V., Linux): georg@unixserver:/mnt/sdd$ java -Xmx15000M -jar ~/Projekt/Europa/mkgmap-r2164/mkgmap.jar --createboundsfile=europe.osm.pbf --bounds=europebounds -> no result, killed after 12 hours Questions: What could be the problem (e.g. usage incorrect) ? What are the resource requirements for the creation process ? Regards - Klaus -- View this message in context: http://gis.638310.n2.nabble.com/How-to-create-the-bounds-for-europe-tp716434...
