[mkgmap-dev] Dealing with JOSM exports

Fri Nov 22 13:59:19 GMT 2024

Hi,

for some special application I'm parsing gpx-files to osm-files, 
identical to importing the .gpx into JOSM, convert them to datalayers 
and finally export to .osm.
These files are then processed by splitter to .o5m.
I'd like to add a timestamp to the .o5m using "osmconvert --timestamp" 
next.
While that normally works for split-files based on OSM data, for the 
above files osmconvert allways throws 6 warnings like

    osmconvert Warning: wrong sequence at node -324213
    osmconvert Warning: next object is node -324214
    osmconvert Warning: wrong sequence at node -324214
    osmconvert Warning: next object is node -324215
    osmconvert Warning: wrong sequence at node -324215
    osmconvert Warning: next object is node -324216

I guess, osmconvert is expecting ordered increasing positive IDs only.
Iirc the decreasing negative IDs are correct here nevertheless, 
implemented long ago to indicate dealing with non OSM objects.
mkgmap seems to work perfectly fine on such split-files.

Did I miss any means to avoid these warnings and have the timestamp 
added other than converting the IDs to positive?

Thanks

//Felix
