May Map Updates – New Overview Map"},"content":{"rendered":"

Well finally after many years of empty overview maps, since a few weeks (as written in my last posts) mkgmap was able to write simple overviewmaps. So much faster zooming\/panning when zoomed out fast in Mapsource, Basecamp, QLandkarteGT. From todays map update onwards, the overview map now has several layers. This makes the orientation when zoomed out far, still a lot better.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Therefore I also update the Europe map again, because on large area maps, this is even more important. However not only is it faster now on the desktop - but also on the GPS the basemap will become visible earlier, making zooming out work much faster (before I always had to compromise between speed on GPS, vs speed on Desktop, not anymore). Therefore however again I had to add some types to the .typ-file (0x11f04, 0x11f05, 0x10f0a).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Besides the work on the overview map, I will start to work on a worldwide basemap. The problem is that currently some Garmin GPS come with a routeable basemap, in some cases this destructs the routing of detailed maps, like OpenMTBMaps and VeloMaps. I will try to create a good basemap, that can go in combination with VeloMaps\/OpenMTBMap showing the most important map features there are (rivers, lakes, sea, huge cities, borders, motorways, maybe some major railways...).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fixed bug that Ireland and Northern Ireland was not updated over the last 3 weeks. <\/p>\n

Further changes:<\/p>\n

add bridge=culvert and bridge=boardwalk.<\/p>\n

fix some more bugs related to autorouting in VeloMap\/OpenMTBMap<\/p>\n

and some more little bugfixes...<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

the new overview map at 150km zoomed out, Detail level High. Very fast...<\/p>\n
