[mkgmap-dev] difference between addlabel and poi-address

Sun Jan 18 11:46:34 GMT 2015

Hi Gerd,

thanks for this hint, I have played around with it and was successfull in most of the cases.

Here my working solutions:

ok 1) If there is opening_hours set, show this info before the phone number.

opening_hours=*   { set mkgmap:phone=' (${opening_hours}) ${mkgmap:phone|def:}' }

ok 2) If there is a website, show this info after the phone number.

website=*   { set mkgmap:phone='${mkgmap:phone|def:} ${website}' }

In one example I was not successfull.
I am generating 1-point POIs for all points where only the addr tags are set, but no other tags available.
This will show all the housenumbers in low resolution.
As addr info I would like to get the full addr incl. street, postcode and so on.
I tried with different solutions but nothing worked, I am getting the name-tag filled but not the addr-field.

Here my code:

addr:housenumber=* | addr:unit=* | addr:door=*  
{ name '${addr:unit}/${addr:door}' | 
  '${addr:housenumber}/${addr:unit}' | 
  '${addr:door}' | 
  '${addr:unit}' | 
  '${addr:housenumber}'; 
  set addr:postcode='${addr:street|def:} ${addr:housenumber|def:} ${addr:postcode|def:} ${addr:city|def:} ${addr:country|def:}'
}    [0x1e04 resolution 24]

The first part is working fine, I can see the housenumber or unit + door on all buildings and also as point if there is no building.
The second part is not working, the postcode tag is not written into the addr-field.

Is there any restriction with the addr-field of the POI-info if no other tags are available than the addr:xxx tags?

Hi Walter,

I think the POI info is filled in StyledConverter. This source snippet shows the corresponding tags:
    private static final short countryTagKey = TagDict.getInstance().xlate("mkgmap:country");
    private static final short regionTagKey = TagDict.getInstance().xlate("mkgmap:region");
    private static final short cityTagKey = TagDict.getInstance().xlate("mkgmap:city");
    private static final short postal_codeTagKey = TagDict.getInstance().xlate("mkgmap:postal_code");
    private static final short streetTagKey = TagDict.getInstance().xlate("mkgmap:street");
    private static final short housenumberTagKey = TagDict.getInstance().xlate("mkgmap:housenumber");
    private static final short phoneTagKey = TagDict.getInstance().xlate("mkgmap:phone");

Be aware that some values like mkgmap:street and mkgmap:housenumber are used for the --housenumbers 
option as well, and others are used for the indexes. 
I think the only tag that can be used for other purposes is mkgmap:phone.
