I would like to see this too. I run mkgmap on a mac, and want to have both a big .img to load directly and also gmapi format to load into basecamp. > In the mkgmap code base there is a python program called > gmapi-builder.py in the scripts directory. > > See also https://bitbucket.org/berteun/gmapibuilder/overview > and http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Gmapibuilder. > > This is a converter, but should work on all platforms with python > installed, or could be made to do so... > The first step is to verify that it works; then it should > be easy enough to implement within mkgmap itself. For what it's worth, I have been using gmapibuilder with mkgmap for a very long time. The mod time on my gmapibuilder.py file is December 2009. I have had essentially zero trouble. _______________________________________________ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev
