New Maps on garmin Dakota 10

[Iuser77]

Hi

 

I just got the garmin Dakota 10. Now i World like to load new Maps, specially from germany. Is that possible?

 

And how?

 

Thanks

Now I tried some maps, but how do I get them on my Garmin? And how to use it?

If you go to http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl you can download the maps you need.

 

Then once you have downloaded them, connect your GPS to your PC and copy the file (which will end in .img) across to x:\garmin (where x is the drive letter assigned to your GPS)

 

I hope this survives an online translation to German:

 

Wenn Sie zu http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl gehen, können Sie die Diagramme herunterladen, die Sie benötigen. Dann, sobald Sie sie herunterladen, Ihren GPS an Ihren PC anschließen haben und die Akte (die in .img beendet), herüber zu x:\garmin kopieren (wo x der Antriebsbuchstabe ist, der Ihrem GPS zugewiesen wird)

For Germany, try the following two free OSM-based maps:

 

http://www.easyclasspage.de/karten/index.html

 

or

 

http://www.kleineisel.de/blogs/index.php/osmmap/

 

Both Web sites include installation instructions (in German).

 

Cheers.

That's my favorite map. Mapnik look, Address search working, decent small POI icons

and so on.
