*Garmin ActiveMap is based on OSM mapping data, map quality depends
heavily on local mapping coverage, Garmin cannot guarantee the quality
and completeness of mapping data
Some tsismis, years ago a Garmin Asia representative asked me how they
can use OSM data in the Philippines. To which I replied: "Sure you can
use OSM data as long as you comply with the license (CC-BY-SA back
then), but, if you need my help, you have to open Garmin spec so we
don't have to reverse engineer it" No reply afterwards. ;)
