[mkgmap-dev] default style points enhancements

Wed Apr 22 15:24:19 BST 2020

Hi Gerd and followers of the default style

Here are some enhancements to default style "points" - patch attached.

I've been building up a list of changes to the default style for a
while, and, with the current discussion about multiple POI for a single
OSM object and the benefit of benches (I've just added this), it seemed
like a good time to put forward these changes. 

Some of these derive from:
http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/pipermail/mkgmap-dev/2019q4/030097.html

Some from other comments in this forum and the rest are from when I've
noticed something wrong or that could be improved.

Summary of changes:
- for amenity={atm/bar/cafe} allow additional POI from other tags,
  eg shop=bakery or any others: leisure/tourism/sport/...=...
- create POI 0x6605 for bench (Geographic>Land>Bench)
- don't create POI for private parking
- create parking POI for parking_entrance
- if parking unnamed, use access tag if exists, giving names like
  "Customer parking", "Permissive parking"...
- explicit shelter_type=basic_hut rather that trying to exclude
  bus shelters etc for Find>Lodgings
- marina code from 0x4300 to 0x2f09; searchable as "Others"
- POI for nature_reserve, even if not named
- don't create POI for pitch if no name or sport
- don't create POI for private swimming pools
- don't create POI for unnamed cliff
- add POI 0x6503 for named bay (Geographic>Water>Bay)
- for platforms, just 1 POI when --add-pois-to-lines
- name unnamed shops as category, regardless of category being matched
- add, commented out, extra shop categories supported by some devices
- add POI for shop=outdoor
- for {camp/caravan}_site have BOTH 0x2b03 AND 0x2b05;
  03 not shown on modern devices, 05 not shown on old devices
- have both Food & Lodging POI for same point if appropriate
- landuse=basin code from 0x650f (Geographic>Water>Reservoir)
                       to 0x6603 (Geographic>Land>Basin)
- water=reservoir as well as landuse=reservoir
- add POI 0x650d for named water=lake/pond (Geograhic>Water>Lake)

I'm happy to explain any of these change in more detail and, if anyone
considers a particular change incorrect, provide a revised patch.
