[mkgmap-dev] What does mkgmap do by default

Sat Apr 11 20:22:28 BST 2009

Hello!

Currently I am getting a little bit confused with all of the development 
being done on mkgmap. I have read about making streets searchable and 
that it does decrease performance and that there is a parameter to 
suppress sorting of streets. But when are features like this executed? 
Do they need a parameter to activate them? Or do they need a parameter 
to suppress them? I have read about a patch do create a certain type of 
shields on the highways. But what if I don't need them or want them to 
look differently?

So I wanted to ask what does mkgmap do by default? What can be 
activated, what needs to be deactivated?

Or more specifically: I just want to build a huge topological map and 
need  good performance for that. I do not need routing and no searchable 
streets. So how do I need to call mkgmap?
