Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED

Sorry Skywoolf, I wasn't suggesting that tiles be split any further - I think the splitting is done automatically based on map feature density?

I was suggesting that popular map requests be pre-compiled and mirrored to take load off the server. Lambertus is correct that some sets are available elsewhere for some countries and regions but not all. And many countries do not provide a mapsource-installer format.

However I totally understand and agree with Lambertus' reply. This is indeed a unique service, the core issue is that it's become too popular for the available resources.

Another idea might be to offload the maps to an alternative hosting provider once they're compiled, that way your own disk remains relatively clean.
