The NaviGPS is definatey fussy with respect to what SD cards it will work with. The wiki contains more information, including a list of cards that are known to work. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/NaviGPS#Memory_Cards >Also, most of the sideroads where I live are standard residential >20mph/30mph roads. Should this be tagged as "Unclassfied" roads or >"residential". The Map Features page in the Wiki is slightly ambigious. >They are unclassified roads, but also for access to residential areas.

If it's an urban area where the roads are all residential and unclassified then I have always used "residential". If the road in question leaves the urban area and continues into the countryside then I'll tag that as "unclassified". I Use "service" if it's a non residential road that feeds other areas (industrial estates etc) and use "unclassified" elsewhere if the area is not principally residential (eg in the centre of the city/town). Hope this helps. Cheers Andy _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/newbies
