[mkgmap-dev] mkgmap ToDo list
From Gerd Petermann gpetermann_muenchen at hotmail.com on Sun May 4 21:13:50 BST 2014
Hi Lambertus, yes, I want to code that tomorrow. I prefer to make it "give me n tiles", but if that turns out to be difficult I try the simple version. I can think of scenarios where it is not possible to create exactly n tiles.

I'd really appreciate such a function. On 05/04/2014 09:36 PM, Gerd Petermann wrote: Hi Felix, > would using the precomp-sea parameter for splitter improve results? It's not that tiles with loads of sea actually failed. good question. I've coded that parameter in splitter before we did some important changes in mkgmap. I think it is needed when you use a polygon file in combination with an imput file that doesn't cover the polygon. If the polygon covers a costline with a lot of islands, but the input file doesn't contain the data, splitter might create large tiles covering these "empty" areas. Later, in mkgmap, the empty areas are filled with the precompiled-sea data, and that can cause too large files. BTW: The quick hack turned out to be useless. It worked better in some areas and worse in others. I'll look again at this later next week.

On the other hand, I don't see these large differences between smallest and largest img file. What part of the world should I try? Do you use the precomp-sea parameter in splitter?

On 30.04.2014 14:06, Gerd Petermann wrote: Hi, if I got that right the number of nodes is not highly correlated to the img size, so the max-nodes value is not a good estimate. I assume the reason is that nodes which belong to roads produce a lot more bytes in the img file compared to nodes which are parts of shapes or other non-routable ways, not talking about nodes which are simply ignored by the style. So, a possible solution in splitter could be to parse the ways before reading the nodes and save all nodeids which belong to ways with highway=*. If these nodes are refered by more than one way with highway=* we assume that they will be routing nodes. These special nodes could be counted e.g. 10 times to give a better estimate.
