[mkgmap-dev] Test if POI is part of a line

Tue Nov 1 09:44:49 GMT 2022

Not sure which Felix you meant. For me it was not about that poi
influencing the routing, but the opposite. If mkgmap created a reputable
line only then display the gate.

E.g. if excluded using semi-connected marker, then also remove the gate.
Typical scenario a highway=path entering a residence garden and the
highway=gate tag on the path.
What I want are gates for say a public garden or theme park, or similar.

Somewhat similar to deleting identical POIs at the same location as documented for the nearby-poi-rules. In the latter case (>2), delete all but one...
