This is what I have understood.
Before splitting the nodes are like this
C
|
A-------------B
|
|
D
After splitting the nodes are like this
with a new node S inserted into A-B.
Tile1 # Tile2
#
# C
# |
A-----S-------B
# |
# |
# D
The node S must appear in both tiles and be flagged as a boundary node
in both for routing to work.
In gpsmapedit you have external nodes that allow routing across
different img files. The external nodes do not have to be on the tile
boundary they could be international border crossing points. I am
hoping the new boundary tags work like this.
You are unlikely to need to use this tag unless you are splitting your
maps using some external tool because - as I understand it - if you
use splitter then mkgmap trims the routes correctly. I plan to try
splitting using gpsmapedit.
