Tunisia

PreView: Screenshot of the Tunisia Map as JPG File (65k)

Please read:

The Maps are only working on Garmin own GPS Map Receiver or on PocketPC with Garmin own Software or compatible Software!
On the PC they are displayed only with the Garmin Mapping Software (Mapsource)!

The maps are Trackware! Send me your tracks, but only tracks and waypoints which are not already on the map.

Tracks: only from dirt roads and paved roads (not off road tracks). Good quality (i.e. at least every 50 m a point).

Waypoints: Cities, Villages, Hotels, Restaurants, Fuel stops, Car Services, wells (Sahara), nice picnic places, sight seeings, etc. etc. All waypoints which are useful for the Tunisia traveller.

Enjoy the map,

Tunisia V10 Auto

This routable map contains all mountain- and sahara dirt roads, most of the important roads, many Pois like Campings, Fuel Stations, Hotels, rom. Ruins, Nationalparks, Ksars, wells and other sight seeings!

The advantage of this map (compared to other maps now in the net) you can use it for navigation. The accuracy ist good because I use only GPS recorded tracks! (I didn't vectorize in any way a raster map). The map is very small with a lot of informations and very fast in the GPS device.

I have invested thousands of hours in these projects. While I do this as a hobby and my maps have been made available to the GPS mapping community without charge, the internet and the software I use costs money.

If you would like to download maps here, please make a PayPal/Credit Card donation to help defray my costs and support my work.

Please report any errors to fix them. It's a one-man-made map and I can't check all roads myself. Thanks.

The streets and dirt roads of the Map are built from 99% GPS Tracks. 

After download and start the setup software, the map will installed in Mapsource. Start Mapsource go to the map and change to normal or more detailed view and switch the service flag to ON to see the camps and fuel stops.

Due lack of time I stopped with this map (2006). Caution: There are not many data on the map! (But better than nothing :) Country boundary + coast lines are not accurate. The villages/cities and other data are from free data, but the map was NOT testet by me in these countries!
