[mkgmap-dev] How to add millions of addresses to your garmin maps of France

Thu Feb 5 03:51:46 GMT 2015

Hi Steph,

thanks for testing. 
Please note that neither the trunk version nor the branch version
will use nodes that have only a addr:housenumber tag and no 
mkgmap:street or addr:street tag. I don't plan to change that in this
branch.
For your area that means that most addr:housenumber nodes are 
ignored as they don't have a street tag.
So, in your test case without BANO data the road "Avenue Léopold Héder"
( http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/32773995 ) 
has only 4 valid numbers: 3, 27,29, and 37
They are in 3 different blocks, one has the 37, next the 27 + 29, last the 3

The address search information is added to the road segments, so we 
create information like this:
segment n (between nodes 370045501 and 410305268) of road "Avenue Léopold
Héder"
has number 3 on the right.
The address search will point you to the middle of this segment.
I plan to add a feature to add more nodes to the roads so that we can
increase the precision, but that will also increase the size of the img file
and it may produce zig-zagging, so that feature needs a new option.
