Routable Maps for Garmin

From this site you can download for free Garmin software and device compatible maps of various countries of the world, which have been generated from OpenStreetMap data and are distributed under the Open Data Commons Open Database License, which allows you to copy, distribute and modify the data.

All maps can be installed onto your PC or uploaded to a Garmin GPS or navigator, enabling you to plan your routes from your desktop and then use the same maps on your device. All maps are routable, even tracks, and a topographic version (with contour lines) is also supplied. A version for trucks, avoiding the use of routes not suitable for such vehicles, is also available.

OpenStreetMap is a collaborative project which aims to create a map of the Planet with free geographic data open to anyone who wants it. Data (roads, POI's, rivers, etc.) is submitted by thousands of volunteers either collected with gps receivers from the areas visited or drawn using aerial imagery. Everyone can participate in OpenStreetMap and add information to the map.

Although more complete each day, OpenStreetMap project is still unfinished. You will therefore most probably find areas not mapped or even containing errors. The good new is that you can fill in these gaps yourself. If you want to join us, you can download our Beginners' guide from here. You'll discover how easy it is!

Hi Carlos I downloaded and installed the USA and Europe maps in Windows XP, per your instructions. (I ran the OpenStreetMap_xxx executable). Mapsource and Basecamp both listed the USA maps but not the Europe maps. I uninstalled and re-installed these but no difference. How do I get these to be recognized? (I also tested Spain and Portugal and both of these were recognized OK). Thanks the the good work! Tim
Admin: This is probably due a problem with the Windows unzip utility. Please use 7-zip (you have a link to download it at the extra downloads page) to uncompress the OpenStreetMap_Europe.zip file and then run the *.exe again. If it doesn't work, you'll have to manually uncompress each MapData_Europe file in the install folder (C:\Garmin\alternativaslibres by default).

France map contains trojan file
Admin: That's a false positive of some anti virus software. Maps are completely safe.
