Hi all,


FYI, i'm making national map layers for all of the canvec map
features, as .shp files and loading them to koordinates.com
I'm converting the files to .osm as well as .img as a transparent map
overlay, as well as a .gpx file
and .gdb (garmin mapsource file) for those items of interest to use
for sites like poifriend.com and creating the National Trails
Inventory :)




and currently storing them on mediafire.com/acrosscanadatrails site.


I'm currently processing the 1st theme of 'LX_Places of Interest' ....
it's a rather big task, but fun :)


If anyone wants to help, and has use for these files im making, please
let me know :)


cheers,
Sam
