Would it be possible to ask for download of entire continent? In my particular case I am looking for a South America map, currently downloading Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina and Chile as separate maps, but have problems sending them to the device as they become too large. There are extremely much duplicated information in such a selection, i.e. Brazil also include most of Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, a large part of Suriname, Guiana, a good portion of Venezuela, Colombia and Peru. Argentina almost all of Chile, a large part of Paraguay and Uruguay and some of Bolivia and Brazil, Chile extends somewhat into Argentina and a little bit in Peru.
My map installer complains of disc space as each of the maps I try to install combined are a little larger than the memory available, but I believe that combined if you ignore the duplicated tiles there should be enough space.
Another question is, for devices with limited memory, or people needing to update frequently on slow lines, what about smaller divisions, doesn’t North America and Europe allow per-state or per-region downloads? What about Brazil and Argentina, would it be possible to download these in separate pieces for each state?
While the problem may be fixed it is taking forever to get a custom map downloaded.
I selected the tiles and entered my email address and was told I was number 7 in the que and the wait was 45 minutes, that was 6 hours ago and now I just checked and I am now up to #2 in the que and no time available.
Ok. There is a problem with this server (memory leak somewhere) which requires a reboot now and then to prevent heavy swapping. The last reboot was a bit too long ago causing a slowdown in map production.
moin,
i´ve found probs by the downlods for garmin:
oseam_ng_atlantic_equatorial_ms.zip fehlt, is linket with oseam_ng_carribean_ms.zip das ist zwar korrekt aber irreführend, weil beim download die meldung kommt: datei bereits vorhanden. schmeisst die zeile “atlantik äquatorial west” besser raus.
oseam_ng_atlantic_equatorial_ms.zip missing is velinkt with oseam_ng_carribean_ms.zip which is indeed correct but misleading, because the download the message comes: file already exists. throws out the line “atlantic equatorial west” better.
atlantik us nord = us west coast + …ms, bezeichnug ist falsch, us-atlantik ist ostküste
atlantik us nord = us west coast + …ms, description of product is incorrect, us-atlantic is east coast
should be “what *has *to be done” - because with your procedure I always end up in deleting the first custom map when installing a second custom map. Until now I never was able to install more than one custom map.
Changing the mentioned settings with GMTK is not enough. Also the windows registry keys in the uninstall section have to be modified. I renamed the folder as well as the display name key from “OSM generic routable” to the same name I used in GMTK. Then every custom installation is shown correctly in the windows uninstall information. And only now it is possible to install more than one custom map. And also this warning “that there is already a map installed” does not appear anymore.
