Hi Gerd, I think resolution in bits is a clever idea. This way we can get a tile, where border of all layers is exactly the same. Maybe this is not requirement for a map, but it seems to be a neat solution. -- Best regards, Andrzej ___ mkgmap-dev

Hi Henning, Steve and I agreed that it is okay to merge auto-block into dem-tdb branch instead of trunk. This already happened, so there is no plan to merge auto-block into trunk. I think you are right, it should be easier to reuse complete DEM files. Maybe I can implement this as a faster

Hi I think before having such a container we would need to have a clear idea what hgt sources are best. I have no objective method to compare hgt sources (is there any?) but I have done some test comparing contour lines generated from different sources. Copernicus (EU-DEM) data has been

Hi Gerd, first I would suggest to wait for Steve is merging the block size branch and just afterwards merge DEM branch to trunk. I think it's causing trouble merging DEM branch before, as user might end up with errors. Later start another branch for DEM-optimization. I don't know how other

Hi all, just to make this clear: The proposed container format is something for the future. I think we should wait at least 6 month to be sure that the encoder is working well, else we would end up with huge files containing wrong data. I think such a container format would require some kind of

Hi Thomas, I see two major problems with this: 1) A file containing all DEM data for e.g. dem-dist=9936 would be huge, and most users only need a small portion of it 2) I am not sure if it is allowed to publish this data when input comes from e.g. 1'' hgt files which are not free. My

Maybee we can create a ready to use DEM-model, store it like the bounds.zip and see.zip ? The user can download it and mkgmap reads the DEM from downloaded #DEM.ZIP# ? This method would be a graet advantage for users, who not so familiar with the DEM . Regards Thomas

Hi all, I am not aware of any erros in r4091, so I think it is time to merge it into trunk. I see only one problem: HGT data changes rarely, so I'd prefer to do the costly DEM calculations only once and be able to store the results. I've already described how to do this here [1] but I'd prefer

Hi Andrzej, I've thought about removing --resolution as well in the past, but for different reasons: I'd prefer to let splitter decide what resolution is reasonable. I also wonder if there is a good reason to store coordinates in map units instead of degrees in splitter, maybe this was only
