Re: [mkgmap-dev] Bug in Road Merging - actually doubling roads.

Hi all, I don't think this problem is caused by merging, at least not the problem that I see with the default style. I also don't think that merging can help to solve the problem. This is just a problem of resolution. The junction is simply too far away from any Garmin grid point and there

Re: [mkgmap-dev] Maps aspect ratio

that's normal. Basecamp takes the central point (north/south) of any map as reference for the cache. The more north/south away from this point, the more it will be stretched. There is a way to define where this point is set - in Windows quite easy, on OSx a bit more complicated if I remember

I think merging is fine - maybe just add restrictions to the adjoining ways if preset. And it really should not happen that ways are merged past a junction - I now think this happens in some more places. Because it's not the first time I notice that a routing turns 180° to return to the junction

Hi Gerd, Maybe it's better to try to merge these small ways as they anyway only creates 'ugly' roads. With increasing level of details in OSM I think mkgmap will need some preprocessing to generalise the data first. I'm not only thinking about these very small ways, but also have the

Hi Steve, I think msg.patch looks good. I'd like to postpone the other changes until the "shrink factor" in DEM is understood. Gerd Von: mkgmap-dev im Auftrag von Steve Ratcliffe Gesendet:
