Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED

Solution may be to use older software. Last time I checked MapSource still supported bicycle restrictions.

I’ve noticed that problem on my Garmin Montana (and Basecamp) as well, got routed over a hiking trail in automobile mode. I presume this is simply a bug, because it’s happening on their official topo maps, too. Oddly, in one situation where there’s both a road and a trail going from one destination to another, if I select Automotive, it routes me along the trail, while if I select Hiking, it routes me along the road. This happens exactly the same whether it’s Garmin’s map or Lambertus’.

If you are sure its a bug and it’s happening on their official maps, please report it on the official Garmin forum: https://forums.garmin.com
They won’t listen if it is concerning OSM maps but if it is concerning their own products they might solve this issue.

I am fairly new to OSM but this site is the only one that I can get to work for exporting OSM data to my Garmin 276C. Thanks for putting all this work in to this. I added a bunch of map information and wanted to get it into my Garmin, but none of all those different command line options works for me. I always though I was fairly computer savvy, but this undecipherable error message shit I get is more then what i can handle. This website works every time. I will have to just wait for the new OSM data to be added, hopefully before I go out on my M/C trip to Tajik/Kyrg.

Thanks KPost. Have a look at the beta site, it has the latest OSM data.

Hey Lambertus,

If i download from the beta site http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/index_new.php i get tiles.txt and generic_tiles.zip , but not the gmapsupp.img and not the excecutable for mapsource. Is this because i download from the betasite and is it going to change on the final site? Or did something went wrong?

EDIT: The problem already shows in a quick download of 1 country, see for example for the Netherlands: http://osm.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de/garmin/generic/20-06-2012/542e0725a3bcefb7e1ebbd78ba447969/

Hoi,

I had the same experience. Only the “tiles”. No possibility for getting the map into mapsource with the windowinstaller.

I also tried “the Netherlands”.

Thug, eggie, the error log shows a problem with the script. I’m looking into this.

Edit: fixed. Affected maps deleted, please request your map again if your map appears to be missing on the server.

Hi to All,
I’ve downloaded the “checked” “Russian Federation” tiles, and then downloaded the compiled file from the index page (via email announcement), “osm_routable_mapsource.exe”, 93.7MB and installed it, with no probs.
Then I downloaded “Germany”, with the same email announcement procedure, however, with the same name, of the first one: “osm_routable_mapsource.exe”, 888 MB.
When I tried to install the second “German” Map, it said, the “osm_world _routable_Map” is already installed, and if I want to reinstall again, click etc, etc…At the end, the Russian Map was disappeared, instead the “German” map was installed. (so obviously one map only was allowed?!?)
Now I changed the 1. original exe file name with an index" _Russia", but by installing, it did NOT work with to different OSM maps!!
Question: How can I install on Mapsource, several country maps , without the “NameConfliction”, (although they all named same in my case:" osm_routable_mapsource.exe"). What do I have to do to avoide this, or how can I change the name on Mapsource “OSM World Routable” map regarding of the different countries, any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated, thanks.

P.S.: I hope I am at the right place here (thread).

Hi Galip,

You may use JaVaWa GMTK (Google)
http://www.javawa.nl/gmtk.html

The ID is the same so you have to change this ID and that is the reason it does’nt work. Javawa GMTK is the tool to do this.

Succes,

Eggie

The FAQ may also be useful.

Hi Lambertus,

Thank’s … the error has been fixed and I’ve got the map of the Netherlands. It looks pretty good with the mapnik background.

Eggie

Great. Fixed a few other bugs and included some stuff from requests etc today, so I think it’s about time for the beta baby to get some prime time. :smiley:

Hope all goes well…

Thanks Eggie and Lambertus, great tool, I also read the FAQ and started the procedure as follows:
In “Extra” - “Change Map Name and ID” I did change everything which was available:
Family ID from 2000 to 905,
Name on Computer, (RussiaOSM)
Name on Device, (RussiaOSM)
Folder Name (RussiaOSM)

However, when I tried to install the bigger “Germany” Map it said again:

“OSM World Routable is already installed”
Click “OK” to remove the previous version or “Cancel” to cancel this upgrade.

BTW, I did use the CTRL G several times, and repeated the whole procedure 3 times with the same result!
Any ideas? Thanks…

P.S.: I wonder how the name “OSM orld Routable” can still remain, although everything has been changed, am I doing something wrong?
P.P.S.:The Tool is great, if only it would work:D:D:D

P.P.P.S.: GArmin GPSMAP 60CSx, GPSMAP62s, JaVaWa GMTK Ver2.4

Howdy Eggie & Lambertus and others,
Interestingly enough, now I tried one more, and it said again:

“OSM World Routable is already installed”
Click “OK” to remove the previous version or “Cancel” to cancel this upgrade.

I clicked “OK” and it started to install, and at the end, surprise surprise, both Maps were installed, the first one as “RussiaOSM” and the German Map as "OSM World Routable (01-04-2012)… Just for your records…!
When I install another OSM, I will of course change the last installed Map ID as well, and so on…
The Maps are excellent, good on OSM
Thanks again…!

P.S.: Mapsource ver. 6.16.3
P.P.S.: Meanwhile Italia is in Semifinal, that may have triggered the JaVaWaGmtk2.4 to work :laughing:

Hi,
Is something wrong with the server, or is this on my end only?!?:
http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/,
it does not show the usual World Map with the tiles to be checked, and to download,
see below the screenshot:

P.S.: Or is there a limit or something like that?

You’re using Firefox which I’ve also used to develop the site. Your screenshot is not normal behavior (there should indeed be a slippy map visible).

Can you force-refresh the page (ctrl-F5) or clear your browser cache and reload the page again?

Congratulations Lambertus! I have spread the news on a few forums :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks ligfietser, and congratulations (and thanks!) to you too! :sunglasses:

The new site is a big improvement in usability!

One minor thing though, there is small hole when I preselect Germany, near Chemnitz.

That is the area where we will be going on holiday next month. Obviously I can manually select that tile, but I don’t need it right now so I won’t request it to keep the server happy :wink:
