Hello Oliver,
Tried downloading and installing QLandkarte today. Looks a very promising
project - a Free solution for creating Garmin maps is much needed. I tried
importing a .img file but it wouldn't load - I assume that you haven't
implemented this functionality yet?
Anyway the main point of my email is about developing a reusable FOSS
library for developing Garmin IMG files and sending them to the device. I
am involved in the OpenStreetMap project (openstreetmap.org) - a project
to create free mapping data and it would be good to be able to create
software (either web or GUI based or both) to convert OSM data to an IMG
file and send it to the GPS device. A library, installable on a server
(and thus perhaps not dependent on qt) would be the natural step forward.
Are you interested in this? I'd be willing to help out with the
development.
Nick
