I have a 60Csx and have just created my first map using contours downloaded for the seamless site, put into mapedit, modified for some roads and then sent to...
Just guessing... if you created a transparent map then that might be the problem. Areas with no map are cross hatched on the 60csx IIRC, so you may be seeing...
This has been a good thread to read for a newb like me. This may stir it a little, but I'm trying to generally get up to speed with maps as they relate mainly...
... I'm new to mapping myself but I'm trying to muddle my way through from the beginning.. which isn't easy because I've got both Garmin & Magellan units to...
OSM may be a great effort, but be careful with the Tiger files. Unless they've already uploaded the fully "aligned" county files which became available in...
Every time I see an E-W error of 150', I just go check the datum and projection, esp. datum. Since the most common registration error is approximately150' due...
Bill, Are you aying that I can copy the North American NT maps from my Nuvi and put them on a card to be used with my GPSmap 60CSx? If so, how is that don? ...
I have a Garmin 60csx. I can create a custom POI icon and import into my GPSr. I create maps as well that other people use. If I incorporate these custom POI...
Custom POI and Maps are two completely different things. It is not clear from your question exactly what you are proposing doing, or whether you realise the...
... no I am not sure how you get the maps for the Nuvi. When Garmin sells the NT maps on a memory card, they are locked to that specific memory card. You can...
OK Bill, thanks for the answer. In that case you would think that you would be better of buying a SD-card but here again, the hand held units do not accept...
Reading up on the Nuvi. It appears that they are delivered with the map in internal memory but will accept additional maps that are stored in the SD card. You...
Hi! I spend the last two days trying to find out how to get the address search feature working on Mobile XT PDA and/or Nüvi. Was reading though several posts...
Thanks all (esp. Bill). This thread and the group is helping a lot with understanding all things Garmin! I bought the full CNNT NA 2009 DVD mainly so I could...
I am making some aviation maps that cover a large territory. From 120W to 75W, and from 35N to 50N. My problem is that after I complete the maps, the...
Sounds like your map is transparent, and what you are seeing is the 'overview' image file (which is at low res, hence the jaggies, and offsets) as well as the...
... Usually this is due to the preview map & what I think is a bug with cGPSMapper. Is your map transparent? If so, create a Preview map using the PVX switch...
I haven't tried this for a while, but the last time I did, cpreview wouldn't accept a pvx switch, but cgpsmapper would. Has that changed? When I run either...
OK, that clears it up a bit. My maps are indeed transparent, and I am using gpsmapedit to do the authoring. I'll put the test map on my GPS to see it the...
... Not certain what you mean here, but I think the answer is no. MapSource needs a preview file for it to show the map. If you don't need it in MapSource,...
hello map builders. I just did buy GM. And so far so good. Just the manual of greg on GM. But the only way to get routing nodes is thrue mapedit. The problem...
This may be more of a device problem than a map problem, but this seemed like a good place to ask... I am using a Colorado with Topo maps and have created my...
Hi Mr. Nielsen, I am new to this area of map making. Are you creating tracks with routable information in them? I was under the impression that this was not...
... If you have set your unit to 'On Road' or 'Lock on Road' then it will force your position to the nearest point that's on a road. If your trail does not...
