[Talk-de] Fwd: [OSM-dev] Looking for some place to host routable OSM based Garmin maps

[Martin Koppenhoefer]

heute kam diese Nachricht in der Dev-Liste, und weil ich die Sache gut
finde, und denke, dass nicht jeder dort mitliest, hier ne Kopie. Kurz
zusammengefasst stellt er routingfähige OSM-Karten für das Garmin her,
und will diese wöchentlich aktualisieren. Dafür sucht er jemand, der
den Platz im Netz zur Verfügung stellt. Vielleicht kann ihm ja jemand
von Euch helfen.

Gruß Martin

Hi Guys,

I currently write a program/process which generates a Garmin Maps from
OSM data. It produces MP files which are later compile them with
cgpsmapper. The code is in beta stage and I need a bit more time
before publishing the source code, as there are still some dirty-hacks
and workarounds which I would like to fix first. On the other hand the
resulting maps are already usable. I tested one of them during two
last weekends and I was successfully guided by my GPS unit from Poland
to Germany and back (more than 1000 km).

I already created maps for Germany, Benelux, UK, Ireland, France,
Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Austria and Italy. I would like to
publish them for wider audience for testing.

The maps are self-installable executable for MapSource for Windows. I
am able to generate the files for Mac. I am working on automated
process creating files for Linux. The files are pretty heavy (average
30 MB one map) and unfortunately I cannot afford hosting them. Because
of this I am looking for some host where I could put the maps for
download. I already talked with a few people from OSM leading circle
but at the end I received no answer.

I want to regenerate the maps every week to keep them up to date. To
make the managing of files more convenient I would need an FTP access
to the server. I would also require a few html pages to describe the
files.

Does anyone know some place where I would be able to host the maps?

I posted a message on dev forum, but I heard the real discussion happens here.

Regards

Radomir
