The current OSM (openstreetmaps) coverage of macedonia is very well, so the next update will be very good.

ps. if you also use navitel, I can send you a searchable macedonian .nm2 that I have made from the current status of the osm project. Coverage is very good.


Hi!
Fyrom83_2008.Q4_090310.fbl - Navteq ~72kb
Fyrom83OSM_2009.02_090403.fbl - Open Street Maps ~61kb
Which one are the right according to you?


(...thx to Germany map choise :P)

The Macedonian TA and Navteq maps have only (some) connector roads, the OSM (even several kb smaler) has much more connector roads (almost all), and street coverage of several citys, like Skopje, Ohrid and others.

The current OSM (open street map) of Macedonia http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/europe ... ia.osm.bz2 has excelent street coverage of almost all citys in Macedonia, so I would expect that the next igo OSM map will be very usable. You can easy convert the openstreetmap.osm map to a garmin.img or a navitel.nm2 file if you need the map more urgendly.

Cheers mate!!!
No thanks, I don't use navitel, I just use iGO8 only so you don't need to send me that nm2, but I appreciate your efforts very much.
And many thanks for the upload and at last but not least for your swift answer!

Hello,
I am interested in whether there is a program to convert OpenStreetMap in iGO format (.fbl), or if there is already converted Croatian map in (.fbl)

Thank you!

There are a lot of alternatives to verify this feature. Check it for example at known railroad crossings or along no passing sections etc.



OK, thanks! Problem is I don't live in Germany and don't know any known railroad crossings or no passing sections. But I will search in the map and I problably find something.

Hi Neolite. Could you please explain how have you managed to convert OSM to iGo format? I looked on OSM WIKI pages but there are no instructions on how to do this.

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Cheers from Croatia.

it was converted by Nav N Go.
As of now, no public converter available that converts osm data to Igo fbl format.

Instead of converting, they (Nav'n'Go) should support the use of OSM (OpenStreetMaps).
It will be much easier, but maybe not so profitable.

No offence mate, but that step wouldn't make any sense. On one hand, who would buy maps from them any more? On the other hand, let's be honest, and admit that those maps (I mean Openstreetmaps) are leaving very much to be desired! The only reason why they use that source is dire necessity. You know, any port in a storm... Not to mention you can find other navigation programs which are compatible with OSM format.

I really hope no offence was taken. I didn't mean for it to come out that way.

But if commercial maps are so good, people should buy them. Or not?
