I assume this includes both, the features on the map and those that will be 
indexed by a Gamin device?
In any case, I also tried some OSM-Garmin files from other areas (Europe), and 
here the index is working properly. Maybe the problem is somewhere else?

Btw: Today I packed the PH-map in mapsource with a different .typ files. Quite 
nice one, it looks like a typical topographic map and includes elevation 
contour (I attached it)
However with that one I have the 'Ondoy-bug' again, where large parts of 
landmass e.g. in the Laguna area are rendered as water. I remember that we had 
similar problems in Mapnik and/or Osma a few years back.
Any ideas?

Also does anyone know how to disable the night view (backgrounds being 
blackened in the night)? It might be very useful for car navigation, but as a 
MRT and bicycle rider I would like to keep bright backgrounds in the night. I 
assumed it was done by the .typ file and I used this tool 
:[http://ati.land.cz/gps/typdecomp/editor.cgi] to export the typ file with 
day-colors only, but it did not change anything.

Glad your back :).  FYI, Soeren was one of the mappers who started our
great coverage in Makati

I am not exactly back, but I was never so far away neither. I am based in 
Taipei now (a true OSM desert :( OSM-Philippines is far ahead of Taiwan). But I 
am back in the Philippines quite often, because my family is still there.

[talk-ph] Garminasus A50 and Maning's OSM-Gamin-files

2011-01-13 Thread sorabsuperstar
Hi all (particularly maning)

I just installed Maning's OSM-Garmin-file conversion 
([http://esambale.wikispaces.com/osmphil_garmin]) on my new A50 (the Gaminasus 
Android phone).
And - Hooray - it works. Kudos to Maning, Garmin and Asus. The A50 acts like 
any other Garmin device in terms of ./map/gsuppmap.img

However what I observed is that there is a huge number of placetags recognized 
as Cities. Not only each Brgy and subdivisions thereof, but even single 
buildings with names.
In result the phone apparently can't handle the data flood and indexes only the 
first few hundred entrees for each initial letter. E.g. for M from M'lang, 
North Cotabato to Maharlika.
Did anyone observe the same on Garmin devices? Any idea how to fix it?

cheers
Soeren

The credit should be to Maning and Rally (main osmph-garmin dev),
mkgmap (the map compiler) and all the contributors. :)

barangays, islands and subdivisions are included in the city search
(which should be called place search, IMO)

Style details here:
https://github.com/maning/osmphgps/blob/master/styles/default/points#L197

The City search exploded in number since we started adding
subdivisions and residential polygons with names.
