Addresss index on GPSMAP 60CSx

Has anyone had any success getting the address index to work on a 60CSx or similar? I have built a map of Denmark (and a bit of Germany), using r2174. (MapSource was not involved in generating these maps). Mkgmap options: java -Xmx1500m -enableassertions -jar "$MKGMAP" --location-autofill=bounds --rou te --link-pois-to-ways --coastlinefile=coastlines_europe.osm.pbf --generate-sea= multipolygon --latin1 --remove-short-arcs --output-dir=tmp -c tmp/template.args java -Xmx1500m -enableassertions -jar "$MKGMAP" --index --gmapsupp tmp/*.img When I try to search for an address, using the resulting gmapsupp.img, I can only find: Region: "Program Licensed Unde" and two blank lines. City: None Found Street name: "Tas Fischpavillon" Entering a house number doesn't change any of these. Any ideas? /Kent

Hello Kent, 2 things. You should use --route, not --rou te And I had also problems with --link-pois-to-ways. Leave it out and see if it works. Do you use the default-style-files? When not, have you extended your own style-files (lines,points, polygons) with the locator-rules? You will find them in the default-style-files. //Martin Am 21.01.2012 um 13:48 schrieb Kent Friis:

Hello I blame my e-mail program for the extra space. It is not in the script. I removed --link-pois-to-ways, that didn't change anything wrt. the address seach results. The style I'm using is whatever mkgmap uses by default. I have not created any style files. /Kent On Sat, 21 Jan 2012 13:54:10 +0100 Martin <mkmap@snailrun.de> wrote:

Yes, works fine, tested it some minutes ago on a 60CSx => http://osm.thkukuk.de Thorsten -- Thorsten Kukuk, Project Manager/Release Manager SLES SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg)

Hi
java -Xmx1500m -enableassertions -jar "$MKGMAP" --location-autofill=bounds --rou te --link-pois-to-ways --coastlinefile=coastlines_europe.osm.pbf --generate-sea= multipolygon --latin1 --remove-short-arcs --output-dir=tmp -c tmp/template.args
java -Xmx1500m -enableassertions -jar "$MKGMAP" --index --gmapsupp tmp/*.img
The index must be built with the same code page as is used for the tiles. In this case --latin1 It ought to be possible for mkgmap to determine the correct character set info from the tiles it is given, but it does not currently do that. ..Steve

Adding --latin1 to the second mkgmap line gave me four streets to choose from: "Vlyvej" "Ergvej" "Trasse (172,173) Hha" "Irene Rosenberg" The first two looks like the end of Danish street names, e.g. "Skovlyvej", "Ellebjergvej" (or other roads ending with the same letters). The third looks like the end of a German road name (something ending in "Strasse". The last one looks like the name of a person, could be a road named after a person, but they usually have something tagged on the end (-vej, -strasse, -road). Just noticed, picking the "Licensed Under" region, gave me two new streets to search for: "Vej" "En" Looks to me like it's grabbing "random" parts of words from the index. /Kent

Hi
Looks to me like it's grabbing "random" parts of words from the index.
Yes I kind of noticed that on the first message... It is weird. I would look at what is included in tmp/*.img -- there should only be the numbered tiles included, and any the osmmap.img or osmmap_mdr.img files which should be excluded. Also make sure that there are no old files in there. If there is no change after investigating that I am out of ideas, could you please upload the index to files.mkgmap.org.uk (or anywhere else you have access to)? If possible reduce the number of files included for the smallest index that shows the problem. Best wishes ..Steve

That did it. Thanks a bunch. Well, at least, streets work fine. Most seem to be in "Country", though, and I have only a few cities to choose from - but I'm guessing that this is a boundary data problem, and not a mkgmap problem... And of course, house numbers would be nice, but I'm sure they are on everybodys wish list. /Kent

Yep, setting location-autofill=bounds,is_in,nearest solved that problem. However, when showing several streets to pick from, they aren't show according to distance, as they were with City Navigator. On the other hand, danish special characters are handled better than City Navigator did when I uses it. /Kent
