Hi Karl & Gerd The comments starting: ;GRMN_TYPE: ...come from TYPViewer idea of what the code should be used for and are not 'absolute', and, for city/town/etc might be very different from mkgmap default style usage. Some other comments to your later questions embedded. Often there isn't a good answer. Apart from me not understanding Swedish so unable to comment on the translations, the file looks good.

Hi. After some long time i had a chance to update also the points in the example mapnik.txt TYP file. I have added swedish descriptions to the extent possible (almost all). The file is attached, if you would like me to create some patch which you can easier check in, do let me know how i should create it.

I have also noted a few cases (see further down) where the overall text is not matching the values in the descriptions. I have not changed them at this time.

Regards Karl

Sized not matching:

[_point] type=0x006 subtype=0x00 ;GRMN_TYPE: Political Entities/CITY_200K/City with the range of (200, 500] thousand inhabitants/Non NT String=Small City / Large Town String1=0x01,Ville (>50k) String2=0x02,Stadt (50t) String4=0x03,Woonplaats (>50k) String6=0x07,Stad (> 50 t.) String7=0x15,Miasto (>50 tys.) String8=0x10,Cidade (>50k) String9=0x05,Città

This is used for place=city with population 100k to 200k and place=town with population >= 70k so the default, more general description, is most accurate

Hamlet is usually much smaller than 5000 inhabitants. Often as few as 100-200.

[_point] type=0x00b subtype=0x00 ;GRMN_TYPE: Political Entities/CITY_5K/City with the range of (5, 10] thousand inhabitants/Non NT String=Hamlet String1=0x01,Nom String2=0x02,Name String4=0x03,Naam String6=0x07,By String7=0x15,Nazwa String8=0x10,Nome String9=0x05,Borgo

This is used for place=town with population <= 1000 and place=hamlet

Grocery store intended but many descriptions show bakery. [_point] type=0x02e subtype=0x02 ;GRMN_TYPE: Business - Shopping/GROCERY_STORE/Grocery store/Non NT String=Grocery Store String1=0x01,Boulangerie String2=0x02,Bäckerei String4=0x03,Bakker String6=0x07,Livsmedelsaffär String7=0x15,Piekarnia String8=0x10,Padaria String9=0x05,Alimentari/Drogheria

This type/subtype is well defined by Garmin as Shopping > Grocery but because of the limited explicit Garmin shopping types, has to cover many OSM food shopping usages. The Bakery descriptions are misleading.

What is this intended to be? An office, or a prison? [_point] type=0x030 subtype=0x07 ;GRMN_TYPE: Business - Emergency and Government/GOV_OFFICE/Government Office/Non NT String=Government Office String1=0x01,Prison String2=0x02,Gefängnis String3=0x04,Prison / Public Building String4=0x03,Gevangenis String7=0x15,Więzienie String8=0x10,Prisão String9=0x05,Istituto governativo

This is well defined by Garmin as Community > Government Office. The default style does also use it for Prison and maybe this is not ideal, but allows it to be searched for.
