Le Migliori Mappe per MTB ed Escursionismo

 

Benvenuti su Openmtbmap.org - Scaricate la mappa più popolare al mondo per la mountainbike! Oltre 4000 utenti al giorno visitano il sito per informarsi e scaricare le mappe che li guideranno sui sentieri più belli, invece di perdersi. Ecco spiegato perchè dovete credere alle Openmtbmaps:

 

  • Tipi di Strade/Sentieri? Chiara differenziazione tra tutti i tipi di strade. Le mappe forniscono informazioni agli occhi di biker / escursionisti. Per es. frecce sulle discese per i sentieri ripidi

  • Informazioni Rilevanti per MTB & Escursionismo & Ciclisti come fontanelle di acqua potabile, rifugi e punti di riferimento,… Le piste ciclabili o i sentieri vengono visualizzate in modo visibile insieme (e non al posto) alle strade differenziate per colore per tipo e in ordine di importanza

  • Curve di Livello basate sui dati eccellenti di viewfinderpanoramas.org. Una qualità maggiore nelle regioni montuose rispetto alle SRTM3 usate normalmente"

  • Participare?  Mappe Incomplete o sbagliate? Potete participare ed aggiungere le mancanze su OSM. Io aggiorno le mappe ogni settimana, così ogni settimana le mappe diventano migliori e più complete! Unitevi agli oltre 300.000 mappatori in tutto il mondo per aggiungere strade o correggere gli errori da soli.

  • Buona Documentazione perchè tutto quello che volete e di cui avete bisogno per poter usare le mappe si trova qui su Openmtbmap.org. Come Iniziare e Scarica le mappe

  • Velomap: Se voi pedalate principalmente su strada o usate una bici da corsa, vi fornisco le mappe simili VeloMap. Le VeloMap sono orientate alle strade adatte alle biciclette e alle piste ciclabili. Visualizzano meno dettagli e sono veloci da capire.

   

 

 

Chi può usare le openmtbmap?

Le mappe offerte qui sono ovviamente, attualmente usate principalmente dagli utenti sui GPS Garmin e dai mountain bikers in generalel, ma non è necessario avere un GPS Garmin per utilizzarle. Qlandkarte GT un visualizzatore di mappe  opensource e disponibile gratuitamente può visualizzarle in tutti i modi, e anche se non avete un GPS Garmin o non avete comprato una mappa Garmin potete installare il programma Garmin Mapsource sul vostro computer e divertirvi a calcolare rotte come non avete mai fatto prima. Oltre ai programmi di terze parti come Glopus o Garmin Mobile XT possono essere usati per visualizzare le mappe openmtbmaps sui vostri PDA o telefoni.

 

Informazioni su openmtbmap.org

Ho iniziato a lavorare ad OSM perchè ho intravisto la possibilità, per la prima volta nella storia, di avere delle mappe fatte dai mtbbikers per i mtbbikers. Tuttavia non c'era ancora una struttura per classificare le strade così ho sviluppato il tag mtb:scale così come molti altri attributi per OSM. Ma difficilmente la gente li usava, così ho iniziato a creare mappe che visualizzavano questi attributi, e dopo pochi mesi ho creato openmtbmap.org per rendere le mappe scaricabili da tutti.

Attualmente circa 2000-5000 visitatori unici frequentano openmtbmap.org tutti i giorni (misurati tramite Google Analytics).

Openstreetmap ci dà la possibilità di creare veramente delle mappe orientate per la mtb  – come nessun altro fornitore abbia mai fatto. Quindi ti chiamo a partecipare al progetto come hanno già fatto più di 300.000 persone nel mondo!

Map Updates 17 Februar 2012

Well I continued further with my full concentration on integrating the contourlines into the maps and improving the Installer. From now on the installer remembers on map updates if you had installed the maps with contourlines integrated or not. Also there is a new option to have a separate contourlines map installed (this setting will be remembered from next map update onwards for future updates).

Now the separate contourline map is useful if you want to be able to switch on/off the contourlines on your GPS. However as the separate contourline map is identical no matter if you install it via a Openmtbmap or via a Velomap installer you will need to leave it activated also on the other install. E.g. if you install the openmtbmap Germany, and tick "install separate contourline map for Germany" and then install the Velomap and don't check "install separate contourline map for Germany" – the separate contourline map is uninstalled. Also if you would uninstall the Velomap Germany, it will be uninstalled (even though you installed it using the Openmtbmap Germany).

Also the German Bundelaender now include contourlines (with the exception of Berlin, Hamburg, Bremen as these citystates are too flat to make 20m equidistance contourlines more useful than distracting).

As for further countries to include contourlines. I finished the contourlines for both Australia-Oceania and United States. As the contourlines are however large in filesize (and I cannot create so big installers – they have a 2GB filesize limit), I decided to upload them separately. This means I will post links in the premium Map download Section (or also on the normal map download page) where you can download the contourlines and then simply unextract them into the folder of the map. They will be used according to your setting in the installer. Also for the Europe map for the next update I will separate maps and contourlines in order to cut the download size a bit (so for doing an update you only need to download the new installer, and the new map files, but you don't need to download the contourlines again).

For Canada I will also upload contourlines – however my server will still neeed about 120 hours to compile them (I noticed that the region covered by SRM1 data is not all over Canada – hence I need to mix it with SRTM3 data – and hence compile it again).

 

Once finished with the contourlines integration – I will work on some Video Tutorials covering basic topics like installation of maps, installation of Basecamp/Mapsource, and working with the maps — to be available in the premium section.

 

Oh and another little change. At the end of installation the installer will open up your browser and ask you to donate. If you haven't  done so yet – I'ld be grateful if you do, cause only if I receive enough donations to live, I can continue working full time on improving the openmtbmaps/velomaps and the website….

Valentines Day Map Updates…..

Well I won't give out flowers to everyone receiving this newsletter, but prefer to announce that I solved some problems on the map updates. The main problem for the maps from the last update was that in the Openmtbmap, showing an altitude profile for routes in Mapsource/Basecamp didn't work, on the other hand for Velomap if you deactivated the contourlines during installation – the routing in Mapsource/Basecamp would be broken. I solved this problem now (wasn't so easy as I first thought) – and now both profile and routing work no matter what you select on installation. I plan to rewrite the installer in such a way, that it also proposes a separate installation of the contourlines – so for people who prefer to send the contourlines as a separate map to the GPS (so you can switch it on/off) they can do so easily.

Because I don't think it is used much, I also decided to stop including the install_openmtbmap.bat, the unregister/reregister_addresssearch.bat as well as the uninstall.bat. In order to make sure noone uses them anymore (they don't work anymore for maps with contourlines) I decided for the installer to delete them.

 

On the other hand since a few weeks mkgmap can create a working address index when creating a gmapsupp.img file (the format you need for your GPS) and I wrote a new batch routine that creates gmapsupp.img files with mkgmap including address search ready for your GPS (create_gmapsupp.img_with_mkgmap.bat). If there is demand I will still include a question for you to choose if you want a) only openmtbmaps/velomaps without contourlines b) with contourlines integrated c) map in its own gmapsupp.img file and contourlines in its own gmapsupp.img file.

Also I (maybe for the last time? So few people using it…) repaired the create_mapsource_installationfiles_with_mkgmap.bat that was broken due to mkgmap updates. Thanks for Christoph to point me on the error. I also integrated hike and easy layout to be chosen.

I also fixed the FID on the North America Velomap maps, so that now they don't interfere anymore and you can both install the openmtbmap and the velomap of the same North American country/region.

Last but not least I am since about 1 week working on contourlines for North America. First I thought it will be done quickly, but actually due to the enourmos data amount of the SRTM1 data – my server is now processing Canada and US-South since over 100 hours, I hope it will eventually sometimes finish. Besides I will still create contourlines for New Zealand and maybe South America…
