hi miles,

what's the nuvi model?
you only need to download the osm image to the folder of your unit

Nuvali is not much mapped inside the subdivisions. found that out some time 
ago. I also bought a lot there but we're not neighbors

one of these days i will need a contractor but my future home will have green 
home architecture and smart bldg features :)

thanks

[talk-ph] Nuvali

2013-06-13 Thread Miles Sumner

I'm from Southern California, USA.  We have a saying there - "I want it all, 
and I want it all now."  I moved to Nuvali 2 months ago and brought 2 Garmin 
Nuvi GPS's.  Of course my US maps are no good here.  I found RoadGuide 
Philippines, downloaded the only map they offer, and there is very little in it 
about this area (Nuvali/Sta Rosa).  They offer a contributors map, which I 
downloaded and it crashed my Desktop.  I found OSM and cannot figure how to get 
it into my Garmin; I could use help with that.  With OSM I'm finally learning 
where I am in relation to Manila.  I don't know how to work my GPS to capture 
and upload locations (GPS Coordinates?); I could use help with that.  I'm 
getting ready to build a home for my family in Venare, I'm a Building 
Contractor and I'll need to find places to get building materials and such.  
I'm accustomed to going on the Internet and using a ZIP Code to find local 
suppliers.  Haven't figured out how to do that yet; Could use help with that, 
too. Otherwise, all is good.
