[mkgmap-dev] OT: Style to help mapping?

Hi Joris,

not sure if others also have this problem but for me the mapnik TYP is not usable on my Oregon. The difference between the magenta for a route and the red colors for major roads is too small, I've problems to distinguish them, esp. when the light is not optimal.
I probably need something different. Ill try a modified version of Minkos OpenFietsMap style with interesting things rendered bright blue or green)

Gerd

Hi Gerd,

My style is a copy of www.openstreetmap.org

Culvert, track(type), meadow and farmland  are distinguishable.
Because of usage osm colors I agree not specifically good readable on smaller gps, but on my Oregon 650, its fine.

You can make more contrast colors in de typ-file  yourself off course

Hi all,

with new Bing areal images I started mapping the area around my home town. This has an effect on my cycling activities as well, I am now much more interested in details reg. e.g. highway=track without tracktype or highways crossing small waterways  (bridge or tunnel=culvert?) as well as different landuses like meadow and farmland.

Does anybody know a public map style  that hilites those details?

Gerd
