14. Working on later

  • Your map is safe: running run again (or "please fetch again") leaves an existing map unchanged. It only updates the templates and candidates. If buildings or canopies are missing from the map, freemapper tells you.
  • Write it again: --force replaces the map. The old one is kept as .omap.bak.
  • Training map: it too stays as it is on another run --training. freemapper builds it from the data, so your corrections in OOM do not reach it. To write only the training map again, delete <name>-training.omap and call run --training. run --training --force replaces the base map as well (chapter 10).
  • Water in an older map: a map made before this version has no water yet. Running run again does not add it. Only run --force writes the map again, with water, as for all other map objects. The old map is kept as .omap.bak, the OCAD map as .ocd.bak. Every run renews the candidates and the check print (--pdf-candidates). So the check print shows the water without --force, and the candidates show the water from OSM and the narrow water from the cadastre.
  • Change the area: run select on the existing folder, then run again.
  • Without internet: --offline works with the data downloaded before.
  • Data currency: freemapper only downloads what was republished. If a provider changes a tile, you get a "changed upstream" warning.
