slovakia - admin level import to osm finished
Hi Jose, do you plan to add also places in admin areas, or should we add "dummy places" as in some areas in Czech Republic? We got report (internal RT6504) about "Bardejovska nova Ves" which does not have any named streets yet so…

Several missing ferry routes in Norway
It should be fixed now (you should at least see the ferries in the map again), but it is still not good enough :(. I tried to enter ferry in Bruravik, but there are four small service roads (after toll_booth), and navigator refuses to use them unles…

Several missing ferry routes in Norway
Hi Gazer75, thank you for your comment - I expected that with processing of ferry relations 6(?) months ago we will improve data and not make it worse, but obviously I was naive :(. I checked only the first example (Bruravik - Brimnes), which is way…

Missing addresses in Germany West (map from 01.05.2013)
Hi efred, thank you very much - this is caused by node ID overflow of signed integer. It worked OK for nodes, but I did not realize potential side-effects with tag division. The planet dump was from unofficial planet release (see http://forum.mapfac…

OpenSeemaps für mapfactor navigator
Hi dive12, I am sorry, no progress on this topic yet - too many other issues :(. I still believe that you can convert XML to GPX or CSV and import it with digger but ... hopefully later. Martin

Longer route causes a route through the city
There is a "transit network" used for longer routes. That's one reason why shorter and longer routes even for the same area may route differently. Also the transit network has "coarse" resolution and detailed road type prefe…

Maps Update
Note, that there were some problems with release of April 2013 planet.osm (see http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/dev/2013-April/026763.html), so currently released OSM maps are from unofficial planet dump from 2013-04-11. regards Martin

I think it would be possible to import something with digger12 (now updated to version 12.1.5). You will need three separate imports for points, lines and areas. Note, that there is no support to import directly from OSM so workaround is probably CS…

Unable to type in house number?
The house numbers were (and in OSM conversion still are) attached to the street and converted to intervals (from-to on left/right side). So if the problem is that you do not see number 19 in the map then the reason is that for the interval 17-25 is …

Speed alarms and warning sounds
Hi Roldorf, do you have sounds (and Navigator installation) on internal or external SD card? If external try 0.14.35 available on http://download.mapfactor.com/mapfactor_navigator_0_14_x.apk there were two bugfixes since 0.14.30 which could be relat…

Hello Chris, at the moment the $destination command with UK postcodes is supported only in commercial version (or better to say with commercial maps of UK). regards Martin

just curious - is there something like planet.osm for open sea maps? Edit: ignore - found that http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenSeaMap : OpenSeaMap is part of OpenStreetMap and uses its database.

search result
Did you update navigator only or also the maps? The search result is related to given map version and after map update/change it is gray - I suppose you use PC or Pocket Navigator. regards Martin

Navigator Android+TomTom Problems to find a street
Hello Sascha, I suppose you are writing about "State Route 17" in New Jersey. I checked address points TT2012.12 and number 201 is still missing there. Hopefully it will be fixed with some future TT map updates. regards Martin

Do you use Navigator on PC/Pocket/PND/Android? Do you have earth_osm.mca installed? I checked it in PC Navigator and it looks ok. regards Martin

I just uploaded 0.14.30 (the APK link is the same). There are two major fixes: 1) restart described by cyunczykg should be fixed 2) thanks to Kim (kkw) we found the reason for crashes in Canada (it was only in English and it was caused by translatio…

What language do you have set in your Navigator? If you select English, you could see names in English too. regards Martin

I just uploaded version 0.14.25 - the search is very similar to 0.14.21 with some bug fixes, handling white screen problems and new detour feature. Now I will try to do revision of tvo in Denmark thanks Martin @bpn - at the moment the radius is f…

I think that this is just misunderstanding - the dates are when the data/maps were converted, i.e. MapFactor date. Note, that in some cases (conversion problem or experimental features) are the data converted more than once. What is Tomas saying is …

Is it possible to reduce map size?
I would add "at the moment" ... as the OSM data are still growing we may split several countries into smaller regions. It is currently discussed ... regards Martin

Speedcams
I see - you mean to make speedcams _part of the map_? The only counter example I can think of now is that some people may not want speed cameras at all (or they are prohibited in that particular country). We will discuss that. thanks Martin

general bug and voice problem in navigation (free)
@apmon - OK, thanks for comments - I changed that now to "small local roads" and it should be visible in March 2013 data (processed now). I will post here side-effects, as soon as they will arise. Thanks Martin

Annoying detour entering Jerusalem from the east.
Hi Tommis, you are right - thank you for your screenshot and description you send to support. The problem is with boundaries. The data of israel_osm.mca and palestine_osm.mca overlap so part of the road network is there twice and the there are no pr…
