No, no, not yet. Only 's with a place AND a name tag. See link.
I downloaded the latest version of the Philippines map and was glad to see all the extra tracks on some Davao roads had been cleared. I was going to ask how to do it.
One of the problems I have is that I live on the main Island of Mindanao but most of my land is on Samal Island in the Davao Gulf. I found that if I wanted the GPS to navigate to my land from home or to home from my land it could not do it due to the water in between. I solved this by adding a “track” marked vehicular ferry alongside the existing ferry route. This worked and I was able to let the GPS guide friends to my land.
I was glad to see the messy tracks gone but the track I added to the ferry route has also gone so I am back to where the GPS cannot navigate except within the same island.
Can you tell me if/how I can change the vehicular ferry route so the GPS sees it as navigable?
Thanks
It’s not clear whether you’re saying that the ferry route has been deleted from the OSM data, or whether it doesn’t seem to be in the Garmin map that you have created/downloaded.
Can you give an OSM link to the area you’re talking about?
I know this is probably the wrong place to ask this, but does anyone know what the numbers signify here. Tiger has added them to streets that have no name.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=30.03309&lon=-99.11883&zoom=17&layers=B000FTF
is an example.
Would it hurt if I changed those numbers to match the address number on the street?

The vehicular ferry route has been on the map for a long time. It is the second one down on the map at the above URL. I found that if I am on the Island or the mainland and want the GPS to navigate to anywhere on the other side it cannot do it. I have to get it to navigate to the ferry then wait until we cross to the other side and set the GPS to navigate again from there.
I could not figure out what to do to make the GPS see the existing vehicular ferry route as part of the route and so I temporarily added another ferry route alongside. This one was recognized by the GPS so it could navigate including the ferry route.
The additional route I added has now been deleted from the OSM data (the on-line map) so what I am asking is how can the original vehicular ferry route that is on the map be modified so the GPS can recognize it as part of a drivable route?
Well how exactly did you add your line? Which tags did you use? Wich way id had it (history).
The first one on the map is:
http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/way/31698206
…
The second one is:
http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/way/42710041
…
If the second one is not routable than the reason looks obvious.
You better ask this on the US mailinglist of the US forum, this has nothing to do with Garmin maps.
There were two ways that overlapped eachother:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/31620366/history
and
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/42710041/history
The first one is a perfectly valid ferry route but the second one only had a name and not a way type (route=ferry) so I deleted it. It is possible that Mkgmap was confused about what to do with those two ways. so perhaps the ferry route works alright again in the next release.
OK Many thanks. I will leave it alone until after the next release then see if it works.
Google has recently updated the right side of Samal Island so there are now more roads visible in the satellite image. Is there a way I can use this to add more roads on the OSM map? Or is this not allowed. I would not be copying a map as Google has no roads on their map for this area.
Unfortunately nope, you are not allowed to trace Google aerial imagery. Don’t do it.
OK thanks
Patiently been following the thread you provided on the mkgmap-dev list.
Does this (http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/pipermail/mkgmap-dev/2009q4/005974.html) suggest changes are/have been made to the default style sheet you use? If yes, do you know when they will be in place. I’m a big promoter of OSM among my Garmin geocaching friends and encourage them to use it, but the thick purple lines are a real turnoff at the moment.
Sorry I’m not much use in ‘changing’ the style sheet as I don’t program - I just contribute to mapping on OSM.
No, I’ve been using the same Mkgmap version for a while now. I’ll upgrade to the latest version for the next update which would then also contain this patch.
I have read through a couple of pages in this thread, but did not seem to find an answer to the problem I have when trying to enter an address on my Oregon 300. I am asked to enter start State/Province, but what ever I enter, I always get the message that the search did not return any results. Anyone know what I should enter to get to enter the actual address?
Thanks for all of your great work. This is actually what I had been looking for the last 6 months. 
Unfortunately the server disk was once again full which has resulted in a number of failed map build requests. If you have received an email with a link to a webdirectory that does not exist then please re-submit your request. Sorry for the inconvenience, it seems like this update is attracting more requests then usual.
Have you found this post? http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?pid=19248#p19248
Great, I’m sorry you had to search that long to find this 
It happened again. More then 500 map requests in the last 48 hours was a bit too much for the harddisk to handle… 
Just a quick question I am new to this. I updated the information for my neighborhood on the OSM Maps the new streets show fine they also show in the tile for the Garmin generation but when loaded on my device they are not there is there more I need to do? I added these streets in Battlement Mesa, Colorado
Valley View Lane
Gregory Lane
Cliff View Lane
Cliff View Cir
Jessica Lane
Angelica Cir

What do you mean exactly with that?
Where did you get the .img from?
I got the from http://garmin.na1400.info/routable.php and when I zoom in on the tile where the streets are located they show on the map but when I generate the maps they do not show on my GPS all the streets around them are there just not the ones I added.
