Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED

Hello

Tried over 20 hexcodes, the only one I got to work is the points for city for instance 0x0001 (big green dot). I used:

amenity=fuel [0x0001 resolution 22-20 continue]
amenity=fuel { name ‘${operator}: ${name}’ | ‘${name}’ | ‘${operator}’ } [0x2f01 resolution 23]

But even then, there is a small gap in resolution, maybe I had to switch to level 24 and showed the fuelstations as green dot upto 22. The other POI’s cannot be displayed in zoomed out level.

Well I’ve left the option, and not gonna use it. When driving I always use routed made in MS of BC, so I’ll look for the fuelstations at home, or I’ll do a find in my GPS.

There is a new version of my script: https://sites.google.com/site/openfietsmap/downloads/osm_combi

Settings can now be entered in the configuration file osm_combi.ini

The only thing I’m not happy with is the fact that mkgmap cannot produce an installer. You still need nsis, mapset toolkit or javawa’s mapconverter.
Maybe someone out here can help to improve the batch file to write a simple windows registry installer/uninstaller to install the mapset directly?
Could this be done with the output of the nsi file?

Problem solved by adding makensis to the osm_combi folder. With this standalone nsis version a separate installation is not needed anymore.

Can you give me an idea as to when you will be pulling data from the OSM server again? I have made some updates in the past few weeks to fix “disconnected” paths and would like to have that data included in my map pull.

Cheers,

OK, updated. Thanks!

Does anybody know a site that has contour lines (at least for Europe) now that http://openmtbmap.org does not have them as a separate download anymore.

http://osm.thkukuk.de/ has a lot of European countries (will there one for Europe be available Thorsten?) or Computerteddy for whole Europe: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Computerteddy#H.C3.B6henlinien_von_Europa
The last set is a bit older and has some gaps in them.

Shouldn’t be a problem to generate one, I only don’t have enough space on my webserver anymore.

I’m also interested in a contour lines set for my Europe map. I have tried to combine your srtm set with some tiles of mine and it def. looks better.
How much Gb is a Europe set? I use google docs (20 gb for $5 per year). How much time will it roughly take to generate them?

I thought you use the osm.nl webspace?

I am also interested in contour line for more European countries, with the holidays coming this summer. I can imagine more people are interested in generic contour lines for use with other maps.

I even considered to generate srtm-based garmin maps to combine with Lambertus’ maps. That data is quite static, so it should not be much work to maintain. But when other people already have scripts to do so, there is not much need to reinvent the wheel.

I’m using osm.nl too but I’d need to move the Europe set (too much bandwidth). Maybe Lambertus has some space left on his server to store a European srtm set? If someone would like to generate one I’d be happy to host it on my google docs account.

Depends on how much data it will be in the end. At first I have to download all the sources, most of them are still not in my cache. Then it depends on the number of nodes. If it are more than the tilesplitter can handle, it will become pretty complicated.

The script to collect all the data is already running. I think beginning of next week I can say more. Let’s see.

Thorsten

I’m looking forward to see the results! :sunglasses:

Ok, with the europe.poly from geofabrik the map is 5.1GB, that’s too much :frowning: Looks like I have to split the map into two parts.

Does somebody know a better poly file for europe? The one from geofabrik has far too much outside.

Thorsten

5,1 Gb in osm xml format? Or img?
Maybe you can use the cloudmade europe.poly?
http://downloads.cloudmade.com/europe/europe.poly

5.1 GB for the img. I created my own poly file yesterday and now the input data is only 4GB, so I’m optimistic that I will have something working this evening.

Thorsten

Ok, the resulting gmapsupp.img is again over 4GB. Have too look at it tonight to see how I can splitt it into two parts.

Maybe you can just zip it as folder with individual img’s with an installer exe / tdb file / overview map img to install it under Windows?
Mac users can install this zip file to gmap format with the Javawa Mapinstaller.

Hi,

ok, a first version of a SRTM map for Europe can be found here: TK-Europe-SRTM.7z

It contains an installer for Windows and a gmapsupp.img you can copy directly onto the device. Yes, I was able to get the img smaller than 4GB :).
Haven’t tested it yet on my device yet, but in MapSource it looks good.

Thorsten

cool, I’ll try it out on my next Europe update. Can I have your permission to recycle those tiles? :slight_smile:

Yes, you can.

Thorsten

Thanks! :slight_smile:

It looks good (I had to remove one of you other mapsets (Benelux srtm) first because of conflicting Family ID numbers, but now I can see the map in Mapsource). Can’t load it in Basecamp as image file on my virtual disk drive, probably it is too large… Havent tried it on the GPS yet.
