[mkgmap-dev] Options

Hi Gert,

yes, I think it must be useful, I also see it in Minkos styles at
http://www.openfietsmap.nl/

I don't fully understand the "better than nothing" part .
The current code adds a POI to each point, so each point has 
a mkgmap:line2poitype=* tag with values start,end,mid, or inner 
for the rest.

The option should be handled with great care, it is likely to
produce a large number of POI for highly detailed ways
created by some imports.
I already thought about an addtional parameter for the option,
something like --add-pois-to-lines=n where n gives a value in meter
for the minimum distance between two generated POI when the way
has more than 3 points.

Hi,

accidentally(more or less) i found the thread regarding review of mkgmap options and the list on wiki http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mkgmap/dev/option-review.

--add-pois-to-lines

This can be useful if you plan to add marker e.g. for waymarked trails. Ok, in fact it's not the best solution to only have this start, End and middlepoint of a way to place a marker.

But "better than nothing".

the following is an example where this is used for map creation => http://osm.thkukuk.de/Wanderwege/

regards

Gert
