[OSM-talk] Using Garmins nüvi 550 for OSM
Hi, anyone here, who has experiences on using Garmins nüvi 550 for collecting data and exporting this for use in OSM? Cheers, Ingo -- Ingo Lantschner 1060 Vienna-Austria Mobil +43-664-143 84 18 ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

I have a Nüvi 205 and have found the trackpoint placing rather sparse. The strategy seems to be on chaninging occurences, not every x meters or x seconds and I haven't found a setting how to influence that. Maybe the 550 has a setting for that, but if it doesn't than it is not very useful. It also locks to roads if it is in navigation mode. Lock to road is only off if you set the vehicle to off-road, but then it does not do any navigation. But the tracklog is on the internal memory, if I recall correctly it is in the GPX directory and it is a GPX file. You can open that in JOSM without the need to convert. No idea how this all applies to the 550, but maybe it helps. Regards, Maarten ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

I have a Zumo 550 and I did upload some track data but I would like to know if there is an app that would split a large gpx file up into the different journeys I have done. Because some are just of me testing it out in a field and I don't want to upload that to OSM. Jack Stringer ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
