[mkgmap-dev] Swaziland changed name to Eswatini

Fri Jun 5 20:54:23 BST 2020

Hi,

This looks good to me.

With regards to Joris' enquiry, if there is no way to use information
in LocatorConfig.xml
in a style file to differentiate between drive on left and right roads
would it be possible to include code that uses LocatorConfig.xml
information to add a tag to ways, when they are processed, indicating they
are drive on right/left. This tag could then be used in the style file to
allocate the appropriate one way type. In a drive on left country the
oneway arrows should be on the left of the road, if they are on the right
they will get mixed up in the centre of a dual carriage way for example.
This makes more sense when 2 countries that drive on opposite sides of the
road border each other and the map created covers both countries. Not
something that happens in Europe but does in Central/Southern Africa,
Zambia, DRC and Angola for example.

Kind regards,

Dave
