Hello, I found out something else missing. Two lakes in Italy. I am attaching a visualization in Google Maps and one in LK8000, I indicated the two lakes surrounding them by a circle. In LK they are depicted in green, both in the Android and in the PC version. Topology had been downloaded using LKMaps Desktop software.

Hi Alf,

LKMaps Desktop takes its data from Open Street Maps, not Google Maps. However, the lake does appear in OSM. https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2085677847#map=10/45.6587/10.7782

It is possible that you have your LKMaps detail settings set to low. Try increasing them, and let me know how you get on.

It is also possible that there is a fault in the OSM data. Does the smaller lake to the west show up? This rings a faint bell to me over issues with the OSM data for that area....

Cheers
John

Thank you, John.
When I downloaded Topology using LKMaps the "Terrain Pixel Size" was set to 90 meters, so maximum details.
Regarding the small lakes, if you mean those west of LIDT they are regularly shown in blue, if I zoom in. Here is a a screenshot:

Double check your settings in OPTIONS for lakes. I have mine set to 1.0.

Sometimes OSM works in mysterious ways. It's not an error in LKMaps Desktop as such, as it just processes the data it downloads from OSM.

I probably already had this setting, but, just to make sure, I downloaded the area again, setting in Options 1.0 on Lakes. Still, I see those two lakes green and the smaller ones to the west blue. It's a mystery..
