Hi Brendan,
The bushwalking community has a user (andrewp) that provides OSM based maps suited to walkers. They are also regularly updated and available for free. https://bushwalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21 <https://bushwalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=28893> &t=28893 Maybe you could collaborate? Cheers - Phil From: Brendan Barnes <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, 23 April 2021 10:36 AM To: talk-au <[email protected]> Subject: [talk-au] Australian maps for Garmin devices Prompted by Bob's post about alternativaslibres.org <http://alternativaslibres.org> error file this morning (jogged my memory, thanks Bob). I use the alternativaslibres.org <http://alternativaslibres.org> Australian maps for my Garmin GPS and Basecamp, so it is good to see other Aussies using that site. We used to have garmin.openstreetmap.nl <http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl> , and in my opinion that was the best OSM Garmin map data for AU. Frequently updated, good clear carto on Basecamp, and clear map on GPS unit with decent file size. Sadly that site broke in June last year and looks unlikely to return. I'm currently using the alternativaslibres.org <http://alternativaslibres.org> Australian maps for now, but my Basecamp really chugs when using it (probably the DEM), and I'm missing the simplicity of the cartography from garmin.openstreetmap.nl <http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl> . Are there any other good and current (and possibly free) Garmin Australian maps out there? Is anyone interested in producing Garmin data (Mkgmap) for Australia or Oceania, but need help with processing/hosting? Please DM me. I'll update the list on https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin/Download#Oceania Cheers, ..Brendan
