There is a ~20MB o5m file that needs to be split. But Splitter returns: "Cannot find a good split with exactly 2 areas" I hope a (the) dev can have a look at this? Thanks!

Hi Lambertus, I can reproduce the problem. It seems that my approach to use an approximation procedure which changes the max-nodes value doesn't work here. I saw similar problems with large values for num-tiles, so I probably have to write a dedicated algo for this. Gerd Lambertus wrote

Hi, we have two conflicting goals in the splitter algo: 1) create tiles with a small aspect ratio (target : < 1:4) 2) create tiles with similar number of nodes I have no idea which one is more important. A few possible solutions for the tile which has 1.112.635 nodes and a height of 288, width of 89 grid units: Vertical split at 269: 2 tile(s). The smallest node count is 23499 (4 %), the worst aspect ratio is near 3.92 Vertical split at 280: 2 tile(s). The smallest node count is 187764 (33 %), the worst aspect ratio is near 9.27 Vertical split at 284: 2 tile(s). The smallest node count is 503112 (90 %), the worst aspect ratio is near 18.5 Horizontal split at 79: 2 tile(s). The smallest node count is 528774 (95 %), the worst aspect ratio is near 30.91 Any idea? In the past, we tried to reduce the aspect ratio because routing over tile boundaries caused trouble. Is that still important? Or is it just a cosmetic problem now? Gerd

Hi all, I got no feedback on this. Please help me to decide how to fix the open splitter problems. Gerd GerdP wrote

Hi Gerd, I would prefer regular shape over equal size. It doesn't matter much, when you use map as a whole, but when you try to select a part of a map only, then regular tiles help to select required area. I would like to get another option in splitter - a maximum size of a tile set in degree. I hope this could help in ocean areas, where usually a small island share a big empty tile with a continent shore far away. I would prefer separate tiles for islands and continent. -- Best regards, Andrzej

I understand. In fact, splitter is already doing something like that when an area is very large: It tries to find a row or column in the grid that has no nodes and splits at this position. This happens e.g. with South America when you split with the default settings. See checkForEmptyClusters() in SplittableDensityArea.java. I see one problem: Splitter is not able to find out if a grid element is empty because it lies in the ocean. It may as well be in a desert.

Hi Lambertus, I've just committed r414 to solve this problem. Gerd
