Bolt2-Mapsforge-VTM-Rendertheme

This vtm-Rendertheme is based on the original from Wahoo. It will work on the Wahoo Bolt2 and Roam2 (heavily tested) and the original Roam (not tested in lack of the device). It is not intended to be used with the the original Bolt 1 and ELEMNT.

Press response

I published an article in the German c't Magazin. It discribes the process of creating maps and some basics for adjusting the rendering theme.

Usage

• connect MTP via usb
• create the directory maps\vtm-elemnt
• copy files via Explorer to the Bolt

Changes to Original:

• width and color of Cycle Trails / Paved Cycleways (initial idea of BadmanBarista)
• paved tracks -> black solid lines
• Non-paved tracks -> dashed lines
• added landuse forrest, more detailed with¹
• color of waterways
• highway outlines for smaller roads and bike lanes / small briges
• changed color of construction to red dashed line
• changed steps to black dashed line
• added railways
• added labels for motorway, primary
• added labels for river
• added some pois like fuel, bakery, cafe, railway station, bicycle shop¹
• added names for cafes and shortnames for supermarkets/bakerys ¹
• added mtb:scale and mtb:type with value-caption ¹
• added landuse buildings¹

Based on the work of BadmanBarista
