Yes I know, on each platform there are different options.... it's not the question about how to convert it on the different platforms, there are on each platform several options, but most of the times you have to choose different ways to go, depending on the platform.

There's even a cli version of the JaVaWa MapConverter, able to run on Windows, Mac and linux.... but unfortunately those executables are only 32bit applications on linux, which is quite a heavy restriction nowadays too.

There are also many several ways to create gmapsupp files with external tools (JaVaWa, gmaptool, just to mention a few) but nevertheless mkgmap supports it natively too.

Mkgmap is THE tool for the osm map creation for Garmin, that's why I'm wondering/asking/requesting if it's possible that THE tool can support the nowadays very common GMAP typ maps also natively... even if there are several othere ways to do that, different unfortunately on each OS.

Cheers
Patrik

Hi Patrick,

on MacOS you can use JaVaWa MapConverter:

On both, Linux and MacOS, you can install wine and use many of Garmin's programs for Windows, including MapConverter.
