[mkgmap-dev] Special cases with LocationHook

Sun Jul 15 09:35:48 BST 2018

Hi Henning,

yes, I've already implemented some changes on my machine which help in your case:
1) add boundary nodes before calling the LocationHook
2) use high precision values of coords when retrieving the data in the bounds file

The above problems occurred while checking the side effects of these changes ...

Hi Gerd.
regarding 1+2) I don't see a use case for having country information on
natural=land/sea (natural=sea I estimate is generated by
natural=coastline). But maybe others do... For my understand those are
just used for colouring the map background.

In general it would be best, to not points which are out of the tile
boundary if bounds-file is used or calculate the splitting point ( in
case of a line) with the tile boundary and then use this as end point of
the way for location hook.
