Maps in Trondheim, Vinstra, Sandefjord and Tynset/Kvikne

I have some old maps (out of copyright) available for parts of Norway. Will add a list next time I vist home. I can scan some of these if there is interest.

Garmin maps

• Overlay highlighting unnamed roads (also has .osm extracts per country)
• All_in_one_Garmin_Map Lots of different maps. A bit messy.

Overlays for missing maxspeed/surface, etc?

Notes on Garmin custom map making (mkgmap)

• Technical documentation for .IMG format
• Technical documentation for .TYP format

• Styles maps OSM elements to Garmin types
• Garmin types can be customized with .TYP files. (road color/width/pattern, POI icons, etc)
• Styles can have a parent. style/info base-style: BASE_STYLE_NAME (does works for multiple levels?)

Produce a test map with all(?) known Garmin types (the default lat/long is 51.7/0.24)

   export BASE_LAT=50.0
   export BASE_LONG=10.0
   mkgmap test-map:all-elements

.TYP files

• To include a .TYP file --gmapsupp option need to be used
• Color palettes?
  • http://www.deltadelta.de/garmin_colours/ (255)
  • Oregon x50 series have 65k color displays

Garmin types

• Are the type ids restricted to the ones garmin understand natively, or can one use the whole range in combination with a external TYP file?
• IMG format has only 6 bits available for storing a polyline type. So only 64 polyline types available.

Bookmarks

• Mkgmap
• Mkgmap/help/style rules ; should mention .TYP files?
