[mkgmap-dev] FYI - Routing Oddities

Thu Feb 5 22:24:27 GMT 2009

I know that others including me are seeing this so I thought I'd share
what I noticed today. I don't know if anyone else has noticed or
reported this already so details are as follows:-

Near where I work I get the symptoms described at
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Mkgmap/routing#Wrong_route_calculation
when I try to route to just about anywhere. However my Edge 605 also
gives text directions in the form of
Turn left at Bloggs Street
Keep left to roundabout
Take 3rd exit at roundabout
Turn right at Fred Street

Even though the graphical map shows a pink line shooting off into the
distance and then reappearing 50m down the road the text directions DO
NOT mirror this and are correct from start to finish.

Hope this helps

Paul
