[mkgmap-dev] one correction of default points style and a suggestion for lines

Fri Dec 3 08:53:48 GMT 2021

Hi Karl,

interesting, taginfo shows 0 occurences for amenity=emergency_phone: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/amenity#values
I guess this was different when the line was added in 2011. See e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/43747775
I would not want to place the rule
emergency=phone [0x2f12 resolution 24 default_name 'Emergency Phone']
within the block of rules for amenity. Let's simply remove the wrong one and add the new after that block.

reg. roundabout:
I wonder why you don't want to add the line
junction=roundabout & highway=service [0x07 road_class=0 road_speed=1 resolution 23]

Gerd

Betreff: [mkgmap-dev] one correction of default points style and a      suggestion for lines

Hi.

Some time ago i ran into the mistake of tagging emergecy_phone as it is given
in the default example style  ./mkgmap-r4818/examples/styles/default/points
on line 148:
amenity=emergency_phone [0x2f12 resolution 24 default_name 'Emergency Phone']

The correct tagging is however:
emergency=phone [0x2f12 resolution 24 default_name 'Emergency Phone']

I have therefor updated this and i am attaching a suggested points file.
I have done the following:
1. add a comment on line 148 that the above tagging is incorrect.
2. the original line is pushed one line down to 149 and commented out.
3. a new line 150 is added with the new tagging.

I checked most of Nordic countries and Baltic countries, there were none
incorrectly tagged emergency phones, i havn't checked the rest of the world,
but it seems that mistakes should be rare.

If you dont mind and if you feel for it, feel free to add the changes into the
default example style.

Secondly i have noted  that in the example lines file
./mkgmap-r4818/examples/styles/default/lines
on line 123-143, the section about junction=roundabout, it would be good to
add the following one line on line 143, and push the current line to 144.
junction=roundabout & (service=alley | service=driveway) [0x07 road_class=0
road_speed=1 resolution 23]

The reason for this suggestion is because of line 198 (or 199 after the above
addition):
highway=service & (service=alley | service=driveway) [0x07 road_class=0
road_speed=0 resolution 23]

The combination of these will make sure that roundabouts and highways that are
marked:  highway=service & (service=alley | service=driveway) and can be
connected to each other are drawn at the same resolution and with the same
0x07 type.
Otherwise the roundabout is becoming much larger and visible before the
connecting street/road.

I am attaching an updated lines file as well and again if you dont mind and if
you feel for it, feel free to add the changes into the default example style.

Regards
Karl
