[talk-au] Viewing OSM Maps in mapsource

[John Kitchener]

As many of you would know, OSM Australia
http://www.osmaustralia.org/downloads.php provides a fantastic resource of
compiled OSM Garmin maps in .img format.

 

Recently 'tdb' and 'overview' file information has been included in the
nightly downloads. This has provided the means for a simple automated method
of loading the maps to Garmin's Mapsource for viewing, test of routing,
feature display etc.

 

The procedure (with credits) is found here

Matt (OSM Australia), has advised that he will include the Mapsource
procedure in the OSM Australia 'How To' section in due course.
