Hey Al,

Good work

I have only just found out about your converter despite generating my own for UK Garmin airspace since 2006 which in turn I inherited from someone else. This is maybe because I post update notes on the forum in the General Doscussion section rather that Software.
OPenair/TNP generated here - https://asselect.uk/
Garmin hosted here - http://soaringweb.org/Airspace/UK/HomePage.html
Attached for rough comparison: one of my .img's, your .mp output (no .img - see blow) and the source file input

Anyway... some feedback

The output looks great... cleaner and clearer than mine I think. A few initial impressions:

  1. Except for danger areas you don't seem to put titles in the blocks, only along the edges. I suggest at the same time as creating the polyline for each block you also create a polygon with the same coordinates and title then the title is (also?) in the middle of the block. Pehaps even instead of the line 'title'. Or maybe simplify the line text (just heights?)
  2. Maybe the lower limit of heights before the upper limit in the titles?
  3. It also seems unable to parse MATZs, using the source generated by ASSelect
  4. the cgpsmapper stage crashes on line 2568 which has this "(52.7674,-8.80153e-05)" as one of the lat/long corrdinates

Bit pressed for time at the moment but I'll test some more when I can and get back to you

Cheers

Simon
