From
memory (I haven’t played with it recently), a ‘mini roundabout’
works in Garmin as a standard cross street. This is quite confusin
because it is there?
and it you drive straight ahead and through rather than around it
things could get ugly?

So draw it out in full, that way the routing and map renderers can do whatever
they like with the information.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that the crux of this
argument really comes down to people complaining because Garmin's
don't do something meaningful with the information, and I'm guessing
those that don't care either way or think mini roundabouts are valid
don't have a Garmin.

I think most people agree most mini-roundabouts are incorrectly
tagged, as for the ones that may be deemed mini, that's where the
secondary arguments of both sides come in.

Hi,
Whilst out getting GPS traces north of Brisbane I've noticed quite a few
roads, usually at the end of a rural road, there will be a cross in white
paint on the centre of road, sometimes with a bolt in the centre of the
cross. Each arm of the cross is about a metre long.
Anyone know what these

These crosses are most typically for rectifying aerial photography. They are
surveyed locations put in an easy to see location.

Hi.
Although I know this issue has probably been done to death, I wonder if it
is true that there is any difference from a routing point of view between a
roundabout and a mini roundabout.
Consider this one:

in the last paragraphs no, my Garmin does not respect a roundabout-on-a-node,
