<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hi Thorsten,<br><br>good points. When the tags like population are different the style may produce<br>different POI (different type, same label), so my solution<br>would not help in all cases. <br>I also see the problem that we can<br>have duplicates which are really different, e.g. two small hamlets<br>with the same name (like Holzhausen which appears often in Germany).<br><br>So, maybe a less general approach:<br>Treat type=boundary relations special and detect the case<br>that a node member with role=admin_centre is present.<br>If that is the case, don't generate a POI.<br>I fear that will also cause trouble in some cases,<br>e.g. when the node with role=admin_centre doesn't have<br>the wanted tags :-(<br><br>Gerd<br><br><div>> Date: Mon, 4 May 2015 08:46:15 +0200<br>> From: kukuk@suse.de<br>> To: mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk<br>> Subject: Re: [mkgmap-dev] Fw: Help<br>> <br>> On Mon, May 04, Gerd Petermann wrote:<br>> <br>> > Hi Thorsten,<br>> > <br>> > thanks for the feedback.
