Here's an example of what I'm talking about: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=42.3921&lon=-71.15861&zoom=16&layers=B000FTF >> A random building outline seems far less important than a restaurant >> POI. > > sorry, but disagree. No problem - that's one of the great things about osm/mkgmap is that people can adjust it to make maps they find useful. I wonder if adding support to put larger buildings at lower-numbered levels makes sense. And suppressing lots of small buildings in dense areas, similar to the USGS "house omission tint". (I know, ENOPATCH :-) [I am still trying to get maps of mass made, and my first step after that is to tweak unnamed buildings down in importance or out.]
