This is probably because you don't have the required pbf jars in the right place. You can use the same ones as splitter, but you need them in the *same* directory as mkgmap.jar.

Yes, I agree splitter is an extra step, but on my computer splitter takes 18s to split the whole of the GCC countries (into precisely one tile, natch), whereas from what I've read on the mailing list, osmosis takes much longer to produce the bounds.

But there is no domestic postal service (whether this is a cause, or a consequence, of the lack of addresses I don't know). If you want to receive mail, you receive it to a central PO Box and go to pick it up. When we bought a bed (in person at the shop) we had to draw a map of our location for the delivery man (using major streets and landmarks), because the house we live in has no formal address. In Abu Dhabi (and I suspect also in the other Emirates), a major problem is that most residential streets are just numbered, rather than named, so you have hundreds of 1st Streets, hundreds of 3rd Streets etc (compare http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=24.47457&lon=54.37276&zoom=16&layers=M with http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=24.45496&lon=54.37316&zoom=17&layers=M - different location, but same street names). There is no postal code to help differentiate them. "Maps" over here are still a novel concept. If a business gives a map, it will quite often be handdrawn, and they sometimes just give you the GPS coordinates directly, see for example the German Vet clinic: http://www.germanvet.ae/contact.html. IKEA recently distributed their new catalogue to all domestic residences and it actually made national news as the sheer logistics of trying to do this when you don't actually know what all the domestic residences are was considered newsworthy! -- Charlie ___ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev

2 min for germany sounds great! Does the extract contain all ways tagged with boundary=administrative or does it contain only the ways that are referenced in the relations?

From my perspective, the locator branch as I understand it will not be much use because the area I live in (in the Middle East) has no useful boundary relations that the locator branch could use. It's not necessarily that people haven't got around to adding this information to the OSM database, but often that this information is not publicly available at all.

Re: [mkgmap-dev] [locator] What's next?
I have read about the o5m format. It's interesting but at the moment there are some things that need to be solved before supporting o5m. 1. the format definition is not final and not approved by other implementors (only the o5mfilter guy implemented it and there may be some inherent bugs) 2. there is no existing toolchain for o5m (no geofabric dump, no splitter support etc.). mkgmap is the last tool in the chain. 3. the format description contains no hint how non latin characters are stored. All examples use ASCII characters. 4. I don't understand why this new format is faster than pbf. So there should be an independent confirmation about the speed advantages. Unless these points are fixed I don't see any requirements to support o5m. Anyhow it would be interesting if you can post the parameters one has to use to filter the boundaries and postal_codes using o5mfilter (or osmfilter).

Re: [mkgmap-dev] [locator] What's next?
I assume that there is a problem with the splitter pfb creation because the source code of this part should be the same in the locator branch and in the trunk. Can you check that by testing your pbf files with the trunk? > I've used a bounding-box-cut, created with osmosis. > Now I've downloaded splitter from trunk, patched with the patch provided by > Francisco (19/5/2011, 21:37). > Now I can splitt pbf-files to pbf-tiles, but also get: > > "Error at line 1, col 1 > Bad file format: ./tiles_sn/63240345.osm.pbf > Error parsing file > Error at line 1, col 1 > Bad file format: ./tiles_sn/63240346.osm.pbf > Error parsing file > Error at line 1, col 1 > Bad file format: ./tiles_sn/63240347.osm.pbf > Error parsing file > Error at line 1, col 1 > Bad file format: ./tiles_sn/63240348.osm.pbf > Error parsing file > Error at line 1, col 1 > Bad file format: ./tiles_sn/63240349.osm.pbf > Error parsing file > Error at line 1, col 1 > Bad file format: ./tiles_sn/63240350.osm.pbf > Error parsing file > Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException > at > uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.combiners.FileInfo.getFileInfo(FileInfo.java:139) > at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main.endOptions(Main.java:428) > at > uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.CommandArgsReader.readArgs(CommandArgsReader.java:126) > at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main.main(Main.java:132) > " > Settings: > Splitter: > java -Xmx1500M -jar splitter/dist/splitter.jar --mapid=63240345 > --max-nodes=100 --output-dir=tiles_sn --pbf ./sachsen.osm.pbf > Mkgmap: > java -Xmx1500M -jar mkgmap-locator-r1959.jar --latin1 > --boundsdirectory=bounds --series-name=Germany --family-name=Sachsen > --remove-short-arcs --index --net --route --tdbfile --nsis --merge-lines > --location-autofill=0 --country-name=Deutschland --country-abbr=DEU > --area-name=DEU --family-id=4 --product-id=45 > --style-file=./master/basemap_style/ ./tiles_sn/*.osm.pbf ./master/basemap.TYP > > Cheers > Martin > > > Am 06.06.2011 um 20:34 schrieb WanMil: > >> How did you create your test.osm.pbf file? >> >>> WanMil, >>> >>> I know we are talking about mkgmap, but with mkgmap I also get a bad file >>> format error with a pbf-file... >>> >>> Martin >>> >>> >>> Am 06.06.2011 um 20:28 schrieb WanMil: >>> Martin, I am talking about mkgmap, not splitter.

Re: [mkgmap-dev] [locator] What's next?
Hi, there are tools like o5mfilter or osmfilter. They should be faster, but they can't write pbf, just o5m or osm-xml. The Format o5m is much better for filtering data, but there isn't any tool, which converts o5m to pbf. So maybe the the hole process wont be faster. Also o5m is faster then pbf, if you would update your local file with change-sets. I know that this isn't the task of locator-branch, but maybe reading o5m would be one of the next things for bnd-generation and splitter. :-) I will ask in german forum, how to use osmfilter for our filtering and compare it to osmosis.

I've used a bounding-box-cut, created with osmosis. Now I've downloaded splitter from trunk, patched with the patch provided by Francisco (19/5/2011, 21:37).

It does not filter for boundary=administrative. The reason for this is that postal_codes are also accepted. The osmosis step is required because otherwise you probably will have memory problems. If you use unfiltered data for the bnd-creation mkgmap must first read *all* points and *all* ways from the input file. And if you don't have a machine with tons of GB this will exhaust your memory. Maybe someone can do some research if there is a better tool for filtering the boundary data. > > Another thing would be the generation of a working gmapsupp.img directly > with mkgmap.

Hi WanMil, just a question: How does bnd-file creation work? Does it process everything inside the osm or pbf-file or just relations and ways containing boundary=administrative? If not, this would be a great improvement, because no osmosis is needed. osmosis isn't a very fast tool for filtering data.
