Hi! Is there a possibility to not show telephones in large zoom levels? Garmin thinks they are really important, so they show up everywhere. Perhaps I will delete them since nearly noone nowadays needs an external telephone ... Dani

Could Garmin think that they are useful for emergency telephones on motorways when you are driving across the state to pay your utility bill in cash? 0x2f12 you mean? I haven't paid attention to that one, because the last public phones disappeared some 5 years ago. Resolution 21 is a bit high, unless you treat the last remaining public phones as historic monuments (touristic attractions). On a more serious note, we have already recycled the "utility" POI (0x2f15) to recycling. Could we use 0x2f12 also for internet_access=*? Marko

I meant normal telephones (0051), not emergency phones (2f12).

There is no 0x0051 in the mkgmap default style, except in the polygons file, for natural=marsh|mud|wetland. In garmin_feature_list.csv, I see 0x5100 for telephone: point|0x10|0x51|0x00|misc|telephone|Telephone I don't remember seeing that code in a Where To? menu entry in my Edge 705.

"The mkgmap developers." I maintain the default style. Best regards, Marko

Yes, you are right. But sometimes the type and the subtype are commutative. I just looked in the POI file: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin/POI_Types#Type_0x00 In my style file I have amenity=telephone [0x5100 resolution 20] But I found a solution for the Oregon: You can separately change at which zoom level Icons appear. BTW In the Oregon the emergency phones can be found under "Communication", that is not really intuitive for a really important thing. Dani
