[mkgmap-dev] Commit: r2159: Improving performance of remove-short-arcs option

Tue Jan 3 23:25:38 GMT 2012

With both my maps I've no difference between Mapsource and the search 
results in my Nüvi 205. However, my Central Europe map shows both the 
Friedrichstrasse in Spandau close to the roundabout and the 
Friedrichstrasse close to the Unter den Linden. My North-West Europe map 
(build with the same parameters) only presents hits for the 
Friedrichstrasse in Berlin-Zehlendorf, close to the railway station. 
Probably the Central Europe map was lucky in the split of the tiles. 
However, in essence it has to be a boundary problem: all three Berlins 
Friedrichstrassen are located in three different neighbourhoods of 
Berlin...

Cheers, Johan
