Do I understand you correct?: The polygons style should be used for polygons created by mp processing but only one POI should be created for the whole multipolygon and not one for each mp created polygon. > > I think (in a first step) you need not to care, whether teh created POI is > within the mp area or within a hole, because also for normal (concave) > polygons > right now it is not ensured, that the created POI is within the polygon. Yep. First step: use the center point of a geometry. Don't care if it's in or out. Further step: Maybe someone likes to implement the straight skeleton algorithm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight_skeleton). This could be used to find a quite perfect point which is guaranteed to be inside the geometry. If you have the straight skeleton you can choose the point on the skeleton with the greatest distance to an end point of the skeleton. > > Gruss > Torsten WanMil ___ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev

I think you also have to change the style file, so that all the polygons created by the mp processing are not used by the style conversion. This should be easy by checking that there is no mkgmap:mp_created tag. I think (in a first step) you need not to care, whether teh created POI is within the mp area or within a hole, because also for normal (concave) polygons right now it is not ensured, that the created POI is within the polygon.

Any objections to such a solution? You should make sure that the one point for each MP is contained in the MP and not in the inner-hole.

Re: [mkgmap-dev] Too many pois on multipolygon areas
Thanks Charlie, Maybe it helps if I put the tag tourism=zoo on the relation instead on the outer way (which is the recommended osm rule anyway). ___ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev

[mkgmap-dev] Too many pois on multipolygon areas
I have enabled the add-pois-to-areas option, because this way I can search for a certain tag that is placed on an area like landuse=*, tourism=* or building=yes. But sometimes those pois are cluttering the map, especially if this area is a type=multipoygon relation. Take for example this multipolygon relation: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/949481 tourism=zoo is tagged only once on the outer way: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/61046378 However, the multipolygon function of mkgmap splits this area up in several parts (to render the inner islands, which is fine) but it also creates too many pois by the add-pois-to-areas for this one tourism=zoo area: http://img546.imageshack.us/img546/5763/zoow.jpg I'd like to see just one elephant icon instead of several. Is it possible to execute the add-pois-to-areas action before the multipolygon action takes place? Or is it possible to set some rules in the style file to make some exceptions for areas with type=multipolygon? ___ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev
