Re: [mkgmap-dev] City search problem

Hi Gerd, I appreciate you for this explanation. Ok, I understand now. Maybe there is a reason to add another new processing algorithm in Mkgmap? How I see it: 1. The Splitter is doing its job as it is now. Without any changes. 2. Mkgmap takes a specific the boundary relation or admin_level from the

Re: [mkgmap-dev] City search problem

Hi Valentin, there is no such limit. The polygon can be very complex. Splitter just uses a different algo if this happens. The problem here is that splitter tries to find rectangles that fit into the polygon AND don't have more than the given nodes AND are not too empty AND they have to be on t

I received a user review for my ex-USSR map on his Nuvi-2797LM. There is another problem with overlapping eastern and western parts. In the area with the problem as I described earlier, Garmin shows nothing on this device. :(

Re: [mkgmap-dev] City search problem

Re: [mkgmap-dev] City search problem

Hi Gerd, Probably the solution is to use background polygon trimmed by country/region area. I think GPS look for background at current position to determine which map to use for a search. Some GPS allow to select map, but mostly it goes automatically, GPS selects a map and then doesn't look f
