hi,
We are pleased to announce the new release (20091114) of the OSM-PH
Garmin GPS Map. This release is another important milestone for the
OSM-PH Garmin GPS Map project.
This the third release who graduated from our new release cycle. The
general release cycle is every two months (1 month for pre-release
testing and 1 month for the regular release). Thanks to all those who
tested and provided feedback.
What's new in this release
2009-11-14
- data as of 20091114, thanks to all the 350 contributors
- 45,000 ++ kilometers of roads
- sea polygon
- beta of address search
- changed codes for some POIs to enable search
- new map style added from Rally
- compiled with mkgmap version 1334
Known bugs:
- Full address search may not work as expected
- Some islands are "flooded" (coastline data issue)
- POI icons not visible using 3D mode in some units
- installer available only for MapSource
