Hi All , I am a newcomer to "talk" so please forgive any procedural errors. I live in Christchurch, New Zealand and my wife and I take frequent holiday trips to the Polynesian Islands and Australia. I use Garmin etex VISTA HCx and try to get OSM maps to wherever we plan to go. Much to my joy I discovered that at: http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl I should be able to get all the map segments I need for a grand and glorious South Pacific Map. The above statement is almost correct: 1. All maps East of the International date line are OK in all respects 2. As soon as I cross the dateline to the West the maps appear to be OK at large area resolution, but ALL detail (including the map) disappear at distance resolution of about 50 Km and smaller. 3. The above problem appears to be confined to a vertical strip of western longitudes, starting at the date line and reaching as far west as north-east New Zealand, the Fijian Islands, etc. Although I can not be 100% positive about this, the South Island of New Zealand is OK, as is the western portion of the North Island, i.e., west of Lake Taupo. Further tests have shown that Tasmania and eastern Australia are OK.
The problem stated above exists whether I have my map assembled by the e OSM people or if I download individual *.img Maps Can anybody through some light on this problem? Thanks. Andreas von Biel (Mortimer32)
