[mkgmap-dev] Will you please include water thanks in future releases.

I am assuming you want an .img file in your GPS to show WATER TOWERS.

In order for the WATER TOWER icons to show up, you have to use the code in
a TYP file. I use TYPWIZ4 to build a TEXT TYP file and then I append as the
last entry of the mkgmap command

 java -jar mkgmap.jar sri-lanka-latest.osm.pbf MYTYPFILE.TXT

You also need to modify the *points* file in you STYLE collection and add

man_made=water_tower [0x6619 resolution 24]

I just started making maps myself. Look at the CONVERSION STYLE MANUAL here:

http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/doc/pdf/style-manual.pdf

It seems a bit complicated, but if you stay with it, you can create maps
that look the way you want! (If the data is in the OSM database)
