[OSM-talk] OSM on Garmin - raster tiles?

2009-01-06 Thread Gervase Markham
When I heard about the possibility of "OSM on Garmin", I imagined something like the Mapnik Slippy Map on my GPS screen. Now I have a Legend HCx, it turns out that I get the Garmin vector rendering with OSM data behind it. This is clearly much better than nothing, but does the gmapsupp.img format s

Hi. Did the webhosting for this project get organised yet? I would like to put it as a featured image, but not if that means that the map dies from too much traffic. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Featured_image_proposals#Hiking_map On Sun, Dec 21, 2008 at 10:06 PM, Nop wrote: > > Hi folk

I didn't give it because I didn't remember, and it isn't what he's looking for. It was the testing of the snap-to road functions and the track-logging I remembered. It is a Mio PDA, model 7nn (720, 730?). I can't look it up right now because I loaned it to somebody for the Christmas holidays, and
