<div dir="ltr">Hi Marko,<br><br>we have the option --pois-to-areas-placement<br>with the defaults 'entrance=main;entrance=yes;building=entrance',<br><br>but I think you want to avoid the situation that we have two POI <br>in the map?<br>I don't like the idea to compare and weight tags in mkgmap,<br>I'd prefer to do that in a kind of style file, but that also sounds<br>like a lot of coding.<br><br>So, please check if the patch admin_centre-v1.patch helps for this as well:<br><a href="http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/Fw-Help-tp5843021p5843485.html" target="_blank">http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/Fw-Help-tp5843021p5843485.html</a><br><br>Gerd<br><br><br><div>> Date: Mon, 4 May 2015 16:26:46 +0300<br>> From: marko.makela@iki.fi<br>> To: mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk<br>> Subject: [mkgmap-dev] Copying area tags to pre-existing POIs<br>> <br>> On Mon, May 04, 2015 at 08:46:15AM +0200, Thorsten Kukuk wrote:<br>> >Even more complicated would be something like amenity=restaurant, if <br>> >somebody adds a POI and adds all tags to the building, too (I think <br>> >this is bad tagging and the POI should be removed from the OSM data, <br>> >but that's another problem.<br>> <br>> Would it be possible for mkgmap --areas-to-pois to copy the tags to one <br>> (or all) of the entrance POIs, instead of generating a new POI?<br>> <br>> Let us consider a building that is dedicated to a single restaurant, and <br>> has multiple entrances.

OK, for cars, the entrance <br>> and exit driveways are usually explicitly mapped, with appropriate <br>> access tags.
