[mkgmap-dev] precompiled sea

Wed Mar 18 07:14:40 GMT 2020

Hi Ticker,

forget it. Found an older extract of Ireland which shows the error with r4382, but not with r4380 or with your patch.
I just want to understand how the changes in 4381 changed this before committing your patch...

Hi Ticker,

thanks for the patch. Do you have an example file that shows how 4381 introduced new problems which are now solved?

Hi Gerd, Mike

Considering --generate-sea=... and SeaGenerator.java.

Following changes around r4381, many more tiles have land/sea flipped,
and, looking at the log files, MultiPolygonRelation gives errors for
the sea relation, complaining about inner polygons being in inner
polygons etc.

The code relating to extracting polygons from the coastline doesn't
seem to understand what it is doing regarding the change in behaviour
between land polygons on a sea tile and vice-versa and I have little
confidence in its ability to handle complex coastlines.

So, I've re-written the guts of it to fix these shortcomings. I haven't
touched the "floodblocker" code, which I think should be
decommissioned.

Patch attached. There are a few other aspects that to this code that I
think could be improved.
