This wiki page:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin describes the options. Personally I tend to use "mkgmap" (because I always have), but if you're new to the process I might be tempted to try GroundTruth first. Also, there's been some chatter on the OSM-talk list about creating maps for Haiti and describing the process for people new to it - some of the messages there might be worth a read. _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
