Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED

Hi
Please can you advise.
I have donated 15.00 euro and set up account,
I have selected maps for download.
can you tell me how to download gpx filres after selecting on map.
regards

What gpx files do you mean? Where do you create/find them?

by default all generated Garmin maps from OpenStreetMap data will use
the code page Unicode (UTF-8). However, some older devices don’t
support Unicode and some new devices have a broken DRM firmware (“can
not unlock map”). In this special case please use the latin1 style.

e.g.:
https://extract.bbbike.org/?format=garmin-osm-latin1.zip

I’ve tried multiple formats from BBBike and haven’t had any success yet but I’ll have another stab.

Is there a definitive answer to what the file should be called? I’ve seen both gmapbmap and gmapsupp in various instructions online. I actually have both on my device (edge 520).

gmapbmap.img is the Garmin base map containing only major roads and large cities. You should not delete this map (at least, if you have enough space on the device). gmapsupp.img is usually the name of the OpenStreetMap based map.

Hello all… I don’t understand why the link to download or the email request doesn’t appear to me :frowning:
Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Hello everyone!!! I tried to download new version of garmin map from http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/. But in section “Request your map or download it directly” there is only info:“make a selection first” and no possibility of downloading map. Why is that?

You’ll have to select your map first (?)
I do select the maps but can’t download or do anything… :frowning:

Hello everybody,
I seem to have the same problem. No matter my selection (via tiles or by country) the site keeps saying I have to make a selection first. Using the optional ‘typ button’ MAPNIK makes the server looking for existing maps, but it stays looking, even after 10 minutes or longer. Does anyone know why this is (and perhaps solutions?)? Thnx Incantatrix

Hi, I also have the same problem. I select the maps and then where it says:- Request your map or download it directly:
(Make a selection first) I used to be able to put my email address in there and then wait for the two emails. Now I’m not given the option to put my email address in. Nothing happens. Last week was the same problem then it said the server was down so couldn’t get them and now we’re back to the same problem. Help!!

Hi BBBIKE.


Yepp. Using the proposed settings it seems to work on my Edge 520.
Thx 4 help. Will donate.

Hello,
I get the same problem…
Help please

There is nobody here who can help you, you have to wait and check if it is fixed or not.
The quickest solution is find another map provider.

Can you please recommend a good provider for Russian maps - ideal for motorcycles?
Thank you in advance!

Hello again. Does anybody has an idea how to let know the mapmaker about downloading problems? Because I didn’t find any possible contact form to them…

See page 1 post #1

And skip the first line, he might not visit this forum often.

No doubt I’m missing something obvious, as I’ve used http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/ before. I can easily select the tiles I want, but I don’t see where to enter my email, select to have a composite file, and ask for the download. WHAT am I missing?
Thanks, Geoff

I have been a really enthusiastic user for years, but the server status frightened me very much:

Server status:
osm.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de/garmin/, queue = 1 requests (~0 days), status = OK
sn21.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de/garmin/, queue = 3751 requests (~15.6 days), status = OK

Why is the queue so high and I would have to wait at least 7 days for my card…?

Mirko, please read the previous posts then you can guess why :confused:
