[HOT] Meeting of the Togo Support Team - July 9, 2013

[Pierre Béland]

Hi Emir

I tested this service this morning for Togo and a gmapsup.img file was ready to be downloaded after a few hours. I will send this info to the Togo team.

In the long term, the best would be that the download services by country simply add gmapsup.img files to the list of files provided.

Hello,
There is a service that providing OpenStreetMap for Garmin GPS format. And I think it's updated every 24-48 hours.
Check out this link:
http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl
It's great tool! You can download it as Garmin basecamp map or mapsource (both windows and mac). Or you can download it as .img format.
Cheers

I'll have a go at translation. I see a few typos in the original.
