[mkgmap-dev] DEM/Contourlines causing grey (empty) squares at the border of maps
From Gerd Petermann gpetermann_muenchen at hotmail.com on Fri Apr 27 07:53:28 BST 2018
Hi Felix, I think it is the shape of the poly that matters. Triangular shapes seem to be problematic. Pattern in DEM would be something like UUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUVUUUUUU UUUUUVVUUUUUU UUUUVVVUUUUUU UUUVVVVVUUUUU with U for undefined and V for knwon height. If you use the (rectilinear) area.poly created by splitter when splitting the geofabrik OSM files you will not see this pattern as often. Maybe it would be enough to change the poly so that it is convex, not concave: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concave_polygon And yes, I can confirm the missing altitude values with gray squares.

Could you try by enlarging the poly 2km to the outside? Not using a poly at all would be really big or am I wrong? Which normal poly do you mean? The area.poly created while splitting the geofabrik osm files? Or the area.poly created while splitting the phyghtmap osm.pbf contourlines file? I also noticed that while any of that grey square is visible in Basecamp - Basecamp does not show altitude in the lower left corner anymore.

At the moment I only have work-arounds: 1) Add additional DEM layers so that the error only shows up in smaller rectangles. 2) Don't use --dem-poly, I think this causes the trouble. Or maybe try the poly file created for the normal tiles. I guess that the encoder still doesn't work 100% correctly, but I have no idea how to fix that and Frank Stinner seems to have stopped his work on https://github.com/FSofTlpz/Garmin-DEM-Build Gerd ________________________________________ Von: mkgmap-dev <mkgmap-dev-bounces at lists.mkgmap.org.uk<mailto:mkgmap-dev-bounces at lists.mkgmap.org.uk>> im Auftrag von Gerd Petermann <gpetermann_muenchen at hotmail.com<mailto:gpetermann_muenchen at hotmail.com>> Gesendet: Donnerstag, 26.

IIRC this also happens with Garmin maps.

Sorry as Basecamp is windows only - only windows installer/Mac OSX gmap file here: https://openmtbmap.org/mtbbayern.exe or https://openmtbmap.org/mtbbayern_macosx.7z Without contourlines the map works fine (mapsetx.tdb...) Contourlines map alone also does not work (mapsetz.tdb...) So the bug is clearly in the transparent DEM/contourlines map. Sometimes simply rendering the contourlines map again and the bug is gone... Seems to be not that common but also not that rare (maybe in 1 out of 20 maps) -- Felix Hartman - Openmtbmap.org & VeloMap.org Schusterbergweg 32/8 6020 Innsbruck Austria - Österreich -- Felix Hartman - Openmtbmap.org & VeloMap.org Schusterbergweg 32/8 6020 Innsbruck Austria - Österreich _______________________________________________ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev at lists.mkgmap.org.uk<mailto:mkgmap-dev at lists.mkgmap.org.uk> http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev _______________________________________________ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev at lists.mkgmap.org.uk<mailto:mkgmap-dev at lists.mkgmap.org.uk> http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev -- Felix Hartman - Openmtbmap.org & VeloMap.org Schusterbergweg 32/8 6020 Innsbruck Austria - Österreich
