This is done on two features as well, building=yes and shop=* for all those shops I can't find a suitable category (for now). > That would make everything > that has a name searchable in the Garmin map. A big issue is that: 1. There isn't any generic POI category, you have to associate each code to the pre-defined garmin category and sub-category. 2. "Garmin just offers a few menu items ... everyone must recycle these items that are not useful." Moreover, it is too car centric (two codes for fuel, a point and a poly code for parking, but none for bakery, butcher, etc.) 3. Recycling items cannot guarantee cross-device compatibility. Anyway, if anyone have suggestions, let me know. Perhaps we should organize some osm-ph garmin hack-day to map at match all OSM map feature to Garmin codes? > On Thu, Aug 12, 2010 at 11:03 AM, maning sambale > <emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> On Wed, Aug 11, 2010 at 5:12 PM, maning sambale >> <emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com> wrote: >> > assignment for amenity=place_of_worship. >> Done for this feature.
