> The patch adds a new style function called garmin_area().
> garmin_area() returns the size of an area in garmin-units ^2. It works
> for polygons only. Unclosed ways return 0.
>
> Please test it and let me know:
> * Do you have a better name?
> * What to do with multipolygons? Should garmin_area() return the
> multipolygon size for all splitted parts of the mp?
> or: Should it be possible to use garmin_area() in the relations file? In
> this case it would be possible to add tags to all members which can then
> be used in the polygons file.
> Example:
> type=multipolygon & building=yes & garmin_area() > 20000
> { apply
>    {
>      set mkgmap:bigbuilding=yes;
>    }
> }
>
> Have fun!
