[mkgmap-dev] Routing Bug on StreetPilot c510

Sat Apr 18 08:44:40 BST 2009

There's some weird behaviour that never happened with City Navigator but 
sometimes occurs with mkgmap generated maps. While calculating the route 
the progress counter goes up to 100% as normal but stays there 
indefinitely (i.e. more than five minutes). Since one can not abort route 
calculation on the c510 via some stop button, I have to disable the OSM 
map, turn the unit off, press the reset button (sic!) and turn it back on.

The reason is not obvious. Today, I wanted to go to an address that I have 
previously entered in City Navigator. Due to mapping errors the position 
was just beside the street in OSM and route calculation did not finish in 
the manner explained above. I then picked from the map the adjacent 
position on the street and everything went fine!?!
