<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hi Thorsten,<br><br>thanks for the nice feedback. I am now working on the <br>code for "Turn restrictions with role=via ways ".<br><br>I am not sure how complex the changes are, so maybe we <br>should call 3116 the new stable version.<br><br>Gerd<br><br><div>> Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2014 15:06:58 +0100<br>> From: kukuk@suse.de<br>> To: mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk<br>> Subject: [mkgmap-dev] Feedback on mkgmap r3111<br>> <br>> <br>> Hi,<br>> <br>> during the last two days I had the chance to compare a lot<br>> of long distance routing of my Garmin 62s (Firmware 5.30, so newest<br>> one with activity routing) with my map generated with mkgmap r3111<br>> and a commercial built in car navigation system.<br>> <br>> The routing on long distance between both devices was the same. <br>> The difference between the km the 62s calculated and we drove was<br>> about 1%, the time about 3%. <br>> Inside of cities on short routes the 62s did choose the better<br>> routes, but I think that's only because the OSM data was more up-to-date.<br>> <br>> So the "NOD127" branch was really a very good job!<br>> <br>> There were only two negative aspects:<br>> - the 5.30 firmware for the 62s is a nightmare in stability and<br>> usability :(<br>> - if you enable "avoid u-turns", the 62s will not only avoid them,<br>> but really never does them, even if it means there is no legal way<br>> to continue. Means in two situations we were suggested to use a cycleway<br>> or a footway. That's reproduceable with the 62s, but not with MapSource,<br>> so I think it's a firmware bug.<br>> (if somebody wants to try: Route to "Tigerpalast" in Frankfurt a. Main and<br>> continue with Routing to "Lange Strasse 30-36" with "avoid u-turn"<br>> enabled, car, fastest route).<br>> <br>> <br>> Thorsten<br>> <br>> -- <br>> Thorsten Kukuk, Senior Architect SLES & Common Code Base<br>> SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg<br>> GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg)<br>> _______________________________________________<br>> mkgmap-dev mailing list<br>> mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk<br>> http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev<br></div>                                            </div></body>
