[mkgmap-dev] does lane assist work with mkgmap maps

2009-09-08 Thread maning sambale
One user reported that lane assist works on my mkgmap generated map.
 I don't know what lane assist do and not so sure if it works with
mkgmap.  Anybody here can confirm that this works for newer garmin
nuvis?

Hi Maning,

 mkgmap.  Anybody here can confirm that this works for newer garmin
 nuvis?

I have a brand new Nuvi 255 and it doesn't have lane assist but it
does tell you to keep left/right or exit left/right as appropriate.

I suspect that  the lane assist feature is not available on the cheaper
Nuvis.

Cheers,

Mark

I can't believe that it works. We don't even have the data in 
Openstreetmap (in general), nor anything about lanes in the style-file. 
Probabely again someone viewing osm map, but routing on underlying CN 
(without knowing about this).

Hi, Felix,

Yes, very often. Due to some changes in code of mkmgap (I had written 
about this earlier) the draw priority compared to non mkgmap maps, or 
older mkgmap maps (before rev 10??) will always show in front (at least 
on vista hcx).
So mkgmap maps will usually always show in front.

Sorry but i can't agree. I use Topo D V2, and your osmmtbmap and selfmade 
routable overlays 
of my mtb-tracks.
my overlay DP(drawpriority)30  , Topo DP 26, osmmtbmap DP 25. Never the 
osmmtbmap was drawn over the Topo D V2.

However it might be that maps in the back take preference for routing 

Again i can't agree.
My Overlay always gets the routing preference, if a routable way is close enough
(i don't know th critical distance)and there is a way to the destination).
But in the case if there is no suitable route on the overlay to the choosen 
destination,
the routing engine on my 60csx takes the next underlying routable map to find a 
route.
First i observed this as suddenly the pink routing line was drawn over a way in 
my Topo,
where until yet i never had been and no way was exiting in my overlay.
A quick view in the routing preview on my 60csx showed me,
that the routing happens on the osmmtbmap, although i started the routing on my 
overlay.
So afaik the routable maps with the highest DP gets the preference and if you 
where leaving the area
where you have suitable ways in this map, the next routable map with lower DP 
is taken to do the job.

Regarding lane assist or car pool lane(HOV) avoiding, afaik that stuff is 
hold in the .trf files of Garmin routable maps.

cheers
Gert
