Re: Worldwide routable Garmin maps: URL REMOVED

So, it's not just Russia. All OSM maps when installed using the GMAPI file and then installed on the GPS using Garmin's MapInstall application produce the same results. That being, the GPS sees the new country map in addition to City Navigator NA. When preforming an Address Search, the first option is to select the Country to search. If one selects the United States (CNNA), only Alaska is searched for the next criteria: City.

If OSM maps are loaded using the gmapsupp.img download direct to the GPS, then the GPS does not recognize the map as another country. So when doing an Address Search, there is no option to select the country to search.

I don't know if this is an issue with the Garmin Montana or with OSM maps or with the MapInstall application. Garmin doesn't care about OSM issues. Although they might look at this one if I plead with the Montana Development Team.

Cheers,

Do you mean this issue is not specifically related anymore to the Mapnik typ file? It could be an mkgmap issue (all those osm maps are compiled with mkgmap), so I suggest you can post it on the mkgmap mailing list:
