Hi Paco<br>
<br>
1)<br>
<br>
It does not create an osm file but an mp file.<br>
a) The program creates an img displaying ALL types and subtypes. The
default style only uses a small number of pois<br>
It is meant to quickly test your device for any pois indexed or not
and under which Garmin category<br>
<br>
ie <br>
<br>
When loading it onto your device you can find out<br>
<br>
a) which types numbers correspond to which Garmin category<br>
b) which other pois fall into the same Garmin category<br>
c) which new categories suddenlyt appear on your device !, ie Book
stores etc<br>
d) which pois on your device are not indexed - Minko recently
mentioned 0x2b05 for camp_site not being shown on some devices<br>
<br>
It helps you when you want to show say different icons for
different fuel operators AND make them searchable<br>
<br>
2) Why there's a dependency on mkgmap r3612 ?
<br>
<br>
It will work with previous mkgmaps but not 100% - I'm not quite sure
what the issue was<br>

<br>
I can't run this software and I'm wondering what it does exactly.
<br>
I understand that it creates an OSM file of a grid of all POI
types in a specified range. Then you can run mkgmap to generate a
Garmin map from this source file.
<br>
<br>
If that's true,
<br>
1) mkgmap.jar produces a map of all POIs in a grid pattern when
called without any argument. How does POI-tester compares to that
?
<br>

Thanks,
