Tunisia vector Map for Garmin and compatible devices

Tunisia

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

Please read:

The Map is only working on Garmin own GPS Map Receiver or on PocketPC with Garmin own Software or compatible Software!
On the PC it is visible only with the Garmin Mapping Software (Mapsource)!

The map is 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,
Alf

NEW: Tunisia V12

This routable map with topo lines contains all mountain- and sahara dirt roads, most of the important roads (but not all, help with your tracks!), many Pois like Campings, Fuel Stations, Hotels, rom. Ruins, Nationalparks, Ksars, wells and other sight seeings!

The accuracy of this map is good because I use only GPS recorded tracks! (I didn't vectorize in any way a raster map like other maps). The map is very small with a lot of informations and very fast in the GPS device.

The autorouting is very simple (not that good compared to prof. maps.) But you can use it for calculating distances. Don't use it in the cities or highway!

PS: If you have Tunisia  > V10 the existings installations will be overwritten!

Support this project:

I have invested thousands of hours in this project. 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 the map here, please make a PayPal or Credit Card donation to help defray my costs and support my work or send me your collected tracks + waypoints. Credit Card payer: you don't have to register at paypal, just click "continue". it's very easy and safe.

The Map is loaded automatically into Mapsource when finished the install program. You can transfer the map with the Garmin own program Mapsource ® to your GPS Device. If you don't have this software, you can use IMG2GPS . Just upload the great IMG File. The files will extracted usually to the folder c:\FreeGarminMaps\Tunisia4x4Travel .

Best way is to deactivate the Basemap on your GPS Device. Play with the levels for the POIs and the detail levels.
