Hi Henning,

I don't understand what you mean with "create sea polygons". It would be rather 
easy to fill the map overview map with them,
but I think it would look strange for a map of Switzerland.

reg. compressed files: Yes, mkgmap can read e.g. osm.zip or osm.bz2, but for 
hgt it does not (yet) work.
I've used code for the hgt reader which depends on random access files 
(MappedByteBuffer).
I'll see if performance is very different when using compressed files.

Gerd

Hi Gerd,

another solution from 'nice looking' point of view except not creating
DEM would be to also create sea polygons for the whole rectangle. But I
guess it's pretty hard as it needs data tiles, am I right? For users of
course it would be better to define an poly-file, where DEM should be
created, as these poly-files already exists.

Btw.: http://www.hscholland.de/OSM/HGT.7z you can find the 'broken'
hgt-files where I got the problem Gerd pointed out. Viewfinder-data are
fine so far.

Can mkgmap read already compressed hgt-files? I remember previously
mkgmap was able to read bzip2 or gz-compressed osm-files. So there are
maybe already classes for reading compressed data in mkgmap.

Finally I want to thanks all of you for the great work! I even don't
know how long I was waiting for this feature!!!
