Why should you download the gmapsupp.img format maps?

For simplicity, I've now also made all countries available as gmapsupp.img download - which after unpacking - you can directly move onto your GPS device. Europe, Africa and Asia as full continent maps are too big to offer as gmapsupp.img maps - the Europe continent contourlines are available as gmapsupp.img download however.

Note - this way you loose the possibility to only upload a part of a map to your device as you could do using MapInstall (or Mapsource for Windows users). The advantage is that you can very quickly change the layout (on both Windows, as well as Mac OS x or Linux), and that it's the quickest and easiest way.

If you want to use the maps for planning on your desktop - then you will need the Desktop map too or instead. Note: If you plan a route in Basecamp on your desktop - you should use exactly the same map on your device (so same date, same country - but Unicode/Non Unicode does not matter - so you could use Non Unicode map on your GPS device if needed, and Unicode map on your Desktop/Notebook)

 

Video Tutorial - if you prefer watching this as a video instead of reading through the text:

 

- Map Data

All maptiles are compiled with mkgmap using map data from openstreetmap.org & Contributors. You can use and edit the map data by visiting openstreetmap.org.

Contourlines/DEM data:

The altitude data for the contourlines is from varying sources in the following priority (if available):

  1. LIDAR data from open government data and other openly available sources - collected and converted to hgt format by - Sonny - DEM Altitude Profiles This data is very very high quality and resolution - there is no better open data available according to my knowledge.
  2. ALOS World 3D30 - überall zwischen N60° und S60°
  3. SRTM 1" v3.0 - very rarely for some tiles missing in ALOS data - also only between N60° and S60°.
  4. Viewfinderpanormas 1" - then 3" - above N60° / below S60° as there is no SRTM data nor ALOS or LIDAR Data avialble.
  5. SRTM v3.0 by NASA 3" v3.0 (very very rarely, 8 tiles only)

more exact info which data is used where - inside the copyright.txt files.

 

Installation:

Unpack with 7-zip (lzma2) .  Recommended tools to unpack:

 

The unpacked gmapsupp.img download and contents

Highlighted here the gmapsupp.img that you need to move into the Garmin folder (not any subfolder) of your device. If the device accepts mSD cards - always put it onto the SD and not into the internal memory (only for testing if the mSD card has problems use internal)

  • basemap_austria.img - usually not needed. Only if you deleted the basemap from Garmin by accident.
  • change_layout_mtbmap.cmd - For windows a script to change the layout. Do it before sending the map to the device
  • change_layout_mtbmap.sh - For linux or older Mac OSx versions to change the layout - do it before sending the map to the device.
  • Combine_all_img_files_into_a_single_gmapsupp... - Scripts for Windows/Linux/older OSx to merge several gmapsupp.img files together. Only needed on very old devices not supporting several gmapsupp.img files (like etrex Vista HCx or GPSMaps 60 CSx - pre 2011 or so)
  • gmapsupp.img - you can rename it to e.g. mtbaustria.img before sending to mSD on Garmin GPS devices newer than 2011. This is the only file you need to copy to the mSD (you could copy the scripts and resources too - they will do no harm)

 

The default layout is "wide" - the layout optimised for most modern garmin GPS units with comparably high DPI. 

Move the gmapsupp.img file to the /garmin folder on your mSD of your Garmin GPS unit. Note the contourlines (altitude height lines) are always a separate second download - so updates are smaller as the contourlines rarely change. The second reason why contourlines are a separate download is that this way you can change contourlines layout independently from the map layout.

 

If you want to move several countries to your device - you will need to rename the gmapsupp.img file. E.g. just call it mtbmap_Austria.img. Make sure not to use Umlauts or custom symbols ("_"  is okay, better not use " "space. Latin alphabet only)

 

Make sure that the mSD of your Garmin GPS unit is FAT32 formatted. Else it cannot be read by your device. Second - do not forget that most new Garmin GPS devices cannot read Unicode maps - so in that case for maps that have (Unicode) after the name, resort to the non Unicode maps instead.

 

 

If you have not used OpenMTBMaps before - please read through the topic about Autorouting: https://openmtbmap.org/about-2/autorouting/

Map Legend - look at it too so you can understand the map layout better: https://openmtbmap.org/about-2/map-legend/

 

 

Compatibility - Unicode vs Non Unicode (cannot authenticate maps)

Unicode is needed to display several alphabets in one map. Non Unicode maps can only display a single alphabet - e.g. kyrillic and latin - but not both. However Garmin blocked using Unicode maps in part of a broken copyright protection on newer GPS device series.

Newer Garmin devices cannot use free unicode maps (except if you hack the firmware) - usually a "cannot authenticate maps" message which show on boot. The following Garmin outdoor devices are affected:

  • All Garmin devices presented 2016 or newer
  • Edge 1000
  • Epix
  • Etrex 20x / 30x (not "etrex 30")
  • Etrex Touch 25/35
  • GPS Maps 64 series
  • Montana 610, 680
  • Oregon 700,750
  • Some recent Nuvi devices - as well as some super old devices that do not support Unicode. (E.g. Garmin Vista C, GPS Maps 60 C)

you will need to download the "Non Unicode" version of the map. Only maps of regions where several different scripts are used - are in unicode. I've listed the non unicode maps however also unter the unicode header for convenience (actually only maps with (unicode ) following their name are actually in unicode.

Also english version of maps is only available for countries/regions not using latin only.

 

Garmin Edge x30 or newer

Garmin introduced a completely broken high contrast mode - that washes out the colors of the maps. Either disable the high contrast mode on the map visibility section. Or delete the \Garmin\MapThemes\Mountain.kmtf (sometimes also called \Garmin\MapThemes\Mountains.kmtf ) file (back it up if you think you ever want to use that mode. Since the newest firmware in July 2021 you need to enable classic mode - 

Activity Profiles, select a profile, and select Navigation > Map > Map Theme > Classic

Classic: This shows the OpenMTBMaps / VeloMaps as intended, however POI are now shown from Edge profile. 
High Contrast: Complete fuckup by Garmin - because they are not able to make their own maps high contrast in first place.
Mountain Biking: Complete fuckup by Garmin - because they are not able to make their own maps high contrast in first place.

 

Language and Codepage

Default - Local Language Unicode. All labels / street names are exactly like in the name tag of OSM. Note for any country that uses latin - the default will be latin1 and the options below are not available. An exception is the South America continent map that is additionally available in English Non Unicode. For USA/Canada this is also the only option. For European countries using latin if you want the English version - you can use the European continent map that is available in English versions.

English Unicode: If available in OSM - English or other European language translation is used. If no translation is available in OSM, the local name tag is used.

Local Language Non Unicode: Same as default but instead of Unicode the local codepage is used. So some characters may need to be transcribed automatically in creation. Codepage is always the local default codepage.

English Language Non Unicode (always latin1): If available English or other European language translation from OSM is used. If not names are transcribed to Latin. 

 

SD Cards

This is not about the maps but in general Garmin units that have a microSD card slow only accept SDHC cards - SDXC cards will not work.  Max 32GB size and you need to format it with FAT32 (not exFAT). Be careful with 32GB cards which are available as both SDHC and SDXC. 16GB and smaller usually are always SDHC.

 

Adapting The Map Layout 

It's very easy to chose a Map layout:

 

Windows Users - Options:

a) After unpacking just doubleclick the change_layout_mtbmap.cmd it will ask you which layout to chose - and within 2-3 seconds it will be changed.

For the contourlines gmapsupp.img downloads run the change_layout_contourlines.cmd after unpacking. This way you can choose how dominant/thick/thin the contourlines are displayed. By default your device does this automatically - but you can change it to your liking this way.

b) You can also drag or drop any OpenMTBMap gmapsupp.img file directly onto the change_layout_mtbmap.cmd - that's very useful if for example you want to change the layout of an openmtbmap gmapsupp.img file that is already on the mSD of your device. No need to move it back to your desktop. Just drop it onto the change_layout_mtbmap.cmd and the layout can be changed within seconds. 

Note 1: never drop a contourlines gmapsupp.img file onto the change_layout_mtbmap.cmd - else you will end up with a very strange looking map if the script/program runs at all.

Note 2: Never drop a gmapsupp.img file created with MapInstall or Mapsource onto the change_layout_mtbmap.cmd if it contains several different maps. In that case you will lose the layout for all but one map inside the gmapsupp.img container.

c) Advanced users only - run from cmd.exe terminal:

change_layout_mtbmap.cmd gmapsupp_Austria.img wide.TYP

The first argument is the name/location of the gmapsupp.img file, the second the .TYP-file . It's easiest to just drag all three files after each other into the terminal. Note - if you want to pass a custom .TYP-file, you have to give the first argument about gmapsupp.img location too. You can also only pass

change_layout_mtbmap.cmd gmapsupp_Austria.img

 
Mac OSx and Linux users:

Note - not possible anymore with macOS v10.15 or newer. gmt_osx is 32bit only and the author does not plan to release a 64bit version.

Note - if you don't open the terminal in the directory of the .sh file - then first go per "cd"

into the correct folder/directory - then

a) open terminal and run:

bash change_layout_mtbmap.sh

a1) instead of running the script via terminal - make it executable.

either via file properties or in terminal with:

chmod u+x change_layout_mtbmap.sh

Now you can start the script by doubleclick. You can also just drop a gmapsupp.img file in your file explorer/finder onto the script in order to change that gmapsupp.img layout.

The contourlines layout can be changed just the same way using the change_layout_contourlines_gmapsupp.sh script.

 

b) for advanced users - in terminal run:

bash change_layout_mtbmap.sh gmapsupp.img

or 

bash change_layout_mtbmap.sh gmapsupp.img wide.TYP

The first argument has to be the gmapsupp.img file - the optional second argument is the .TYP file (if you want to add a custom .TYP file)

Note 1: never drop a contourlines gmapsupp.img file onto the change_layout_mtbmap.sh - else you will end up with a very strange looking map if the script/program runs at all.

The contourlines layout can be changed just the same way using the change_layout_contourlines_gmapsupp.sh script.

Note 2: Never give a gmapsupp.img file created with MapInstall to change_layout_mtbmap.sh if it contains several different maps. In that case you will lose the layout for all but one map inside the gmapsupp.img container.

 

Map Visibility in Basecamp

By default I've disabled that maps are loaded for display/to show in Basecamp. However if you like to see the map when connecting the GPS device or mSD card to your computer with Basecamp open - you can run the change map layout script (see Adapting the Map Layout above) - at the end of the script you will be asked to enable or disable the Basecamp Map Visibility.

 

Joining gmapsupp.img files for very old devices 

 

Very old devices - Join gmapsupp.img files

Very old devices like etrex vista HCx or GPSMaps 60 CSx - can only use one map file - called gmapsupp.img (max size 4GB). Now if you would like several countries or map plus contourlines to show - you need to join the .img files first.

To do that - add the additional .img files (e.g. contours_austria.img) to the extracted folder of the map. Then run the script:

Combine_all_img_files_into_a_single_gmapsupp_img

 

On Windows you simply doubleclick the Combine_all_img_files_into_a_single_gmapsupp_img.cmd script.

 

on OSx or Linux you open the the .sh script from terminal by

bash Combine_all_img_files_into_a_single_gmapsupp_img.sh

(or chmod u+x to make it executable first, then run it by doubleclick).

Note - if you don't open the terminal in the directory of the .sh file - then first go per "cd"

into the correct folder/directory.

Note -this is not possible anymore with macOS v10.15 or newer. gmt_osx is 32bit only and the author does not plan to release a 64bit version.

The following contourlines are with the standard recommended equidistance of 20m. In mountaineous regions I recommend to use 20m equidistance. However as of popular demand you can alternatively download 10m equidistance for all countries and continents (except Asia continent map - because it is too large). Note that the underlying data outside of Europe in mountaineous regions is actually not good enough to really profit from 10m equidistance lines at all. For flat regions however worldwide 10m contourlines can make sense. So that's why I offer them for download worldwide.

In general I recommend not to install more than 6-8GB of maps on your device at any time. As the contourlines do not have an address index or any POI they don't count towards that limit - as they will not slow down your device like normal maps do.

Do note however that all Garmin devices have a max tile limit of 2048 or 4096 - so do not forget about that. The South America contourlines 10m for example already have about 3000 tiles.  So better just export those ones that you need by using the windows or osX gmapi download instead and send with MapInstall. (that is alsow why there are not Asia gmapsupp 10m contourlines - they would break the 4096 tile limit.)

If you break the 2048 or 4096 tile limit - some tiles simply will not be shown - which ones I cannot tell you - that's random.  Be very careful about this limit if you go for the 10m contourlines for a continent - or if you insist to install the 20m Asia continent gmapsupp contourlines (also over 3000 tiles).

I cannot tell you for gmapsupp.img downloads consisting of several gmapsupp.img maps which map covers which part. That is a bit random too. You can look at the gmapsupp.img map coverage by loading them in QmapShack.

Also in Europe only where there is LIDAR coverage 10m contourlines make sense in mountain regions. Inside the copyright file you can find out the data sources.

Many people prefer to not see buildings using the VeloMap in cities. Sadly I cannot filter buildings based on if they are on the countryside or in a city. If you are not interested in the buildings - removing them makes the map faster to pan around - and will save a little bit of battery (the speed difference will be big on older Garmin GPS devices - but nearly not noticeable on newer Garmin GPS devices. Besides of course if you are not interested in the buildings - not seeing them helps with contrast and you can focus on the streets/ways. Other people prefer to see the buildings. For Right now I only move the buildings to a separate layer for the VeloMap - for off road use/ Mountainbiking in general I think that buildings should be shown. I may create that additional layer in future for openmtbmap too if there is demand.

Just as above for the contourlines - copy the gmapsupp.img file into the Garmin folder on your GPS devices mSD card (or internal memory if your device has no mSD card).

 

In general I recommend not to install more than 6-8GB of maps on your device at any time. As the buildings do not have an address index or any POI they don't count towards that limit - as they will not slow down your device like normal maps do.

Do note however that all Garmin devices have a max tile limit of 2048 or 4096, or around 15000 tiles - so do not forget about that.  If you break the 2048 or 4096 tile limit - some tiles simply will not be shown - which ones I cannot tell you - that's random.  Be very careful about this limit if you go for continent gmapsupp.img downloads of Europe or Asia. Asia is only possible with contourlines and buildings on devices with 15.000 tiles limit. Europe likely soon break the 4096 tile limit.

    Hallo Felix,
    ich habe mein Garmin Edge 810 mit dem 1030 Plus erstzt. Nun da ist keine SD Karte vorhanden. Schließe ich das Edge per USB an sehe ich E:\Garmin\CustomMaps.
    Frage, muss ich die Files xxx.img, contours.img und xx_ov.img da hin kopieren?

    Beste Grüße und ich wünsche dir ein gutes neues Jahr 2024.

    GLG Jörg

  • Ayasha27

    Ui fällt mir nach all den Jahren jetzt erst auf dass der Owner deutsch spricht :). Zunächst auch von mir ein Dankeschön! Ich habe schon nach sehr kurzer Zeit die Unterstützung begonnen:) – absolut gerne für so eine Arbeit 🙂

    Ich habe eine Frage: Ich finde auf meinem Garmin jetzt auch …_ov.img Dateien. Wo kommen die her bzw was ist das… sorry falls ich da was übersehen habe: ich bin derzeit am Karten aktualisieren für die kommenden Reisen und weiss jetzt nicht ob ich die vom Gerät löschen kann?

    • extremecarver

      Ja kannst du löschen. OV.. gleich Übersichtskarte aber die von Garmin ist besser. Ist nur gedacht dafür falls man die von Garmin gelöscht hat und nicht mehr wiederherstellen kann.

  • pedro_surplus

    Felix, vielen Dank für den Tipp mit den Höhenlinien. Jetzt hab sogar ich es verstanden. Ich habe also die Höhenlinien Europa als gmapsupp downgeloadet und entpackt, ergibt zwei .img-files, die hab ich auf die micro-SD-Karte nach \Garmin geschrieben, und schon sehe ich auf jeder Karte die Höhenlinien. Super!

  • pedro_surplus

    Hi Felix,
    seit vielen Jahren benutze ich die openmtb-Karten zum Mountainbiken und auf Reisen in mehreren europäischen Ländern.
    Mein Standardgerät ist ein etrex 30x, als Reserve hab ich noch einen etrex 30. Zum Segeln auf der Adria nehme ich einen Montana 600 mit der Garmin-Seekarte.
    Auf den etrexen habe ich jeweils eine micro-SD-Karte mit 10 openmtb-Karten von mehreren Ländern von Norwegen bis Italien.
    Jetzt ist mir aufgefallen, dass einige Karten (z. B. Schweden und Italien) die Höhenlinien anzeigen und andere (Deutschland, NIederlande) nicht.
    Ich habe mir gestern die neueste Deutchlandkarte als gmapsupp downgeloadet und als einzige Karte auf einer micro-SD gespeichert. Höhenlinien werden beim etrex 30x nicht angezeigt.
    Wo ist mein Fehler? Muss ich die Höhenlinien noch proaktiv in die gmapsupp integrieren?
    Im Voraus besten Dank
    Pedro

    • extremecarver

      Die gmapsupp.img Downloads sind immer ohne Höhenlinien, damit man diese nicht mit updaten muss. Die Karten für PC Installation haben diese meist inkludiert (nur bei großen Ländern separatre Download). Sprich du musst sie extra herunterladen und separat aktiviern.

  • Thomas2009

    Hi Felix,
    danke für Deine Bemühungen und Vorschläge!
    Aber ich verwende eben insbesondere deine gmapsupp Dateien.
    Vlt. klappt es ja doch mit DACH

    Wenn nicht wäre eine Gmapsupp für A Li und CH auch schon hilfreich (aus 3 mach 1)

    Merci Dir!!
    Thomas

  • ELLAbikes

    Hallo nochmals, Felix,
    habe ein Edge 1030. Seit der letzten Aktualisierung sehe ich die Höhenlinien nicht mehr. Habe schon alles ausprobiert.
    Letzter Versuch: ganz von vorne angefangen. Neue SD Karte, die .img Karten neu runtergeladen, die contourlines 20m neu runtergeladen. Aber ohne Erfolg. Ich sehe keine Höhenlinien. Und zudem sehe ich die Wiesen BLAU!! (siehe Bild)

    Gibt es eine Lösung/Erklärung?

    Besten Dank und herzliche Grüße!
    K.

  • Thomas2009

    Hallo Felix,

    ich hätte eine Bitte bzgl. den Kartenupdates:

    Wäre es möglich eine DACH (inkl. Lichtenstein) für die Gartengeräte zu erstellen?
    Vorteil wäre noch ein paar freie img-Dateien auf der Fenix (ich glaube es können Immer nur 8 gleichzeitig aktiv sein…)

    Oder alternativ einen Download der jeweiligen Länder ohne / mit 10er Höhenlinien / mit 20er Höhenlinienen anbieten?

    Wäre super – vielen Dank,
    Thomas

    • extremecarver

      Nachdem es DACH inzwischen von Geofabrik als Extrakt zum Download gibt, werde ich es überlegen. Die Höhenlinien zu dem Land hinzufügen kannst du unter Linux oder Windows selber mit dem beiligenden Batch/Bash File (combine…) – Als Download schon zusammengefügt wird es daher definitiv nicht kommen.

      • Thomas2009

        Perfekt Felix

        Das löst mein Problem!
        Irgendwie bin ich da bisher nicht draufgekommen 🙂

        GMapTool und Land A CH LI + jeweilige Höhenlinien Zusammenführen und fertig

        Das ist kein gr. Workflow und alles funktioniert auf den ersten Blick gut!

        Danke – ein DACH benötige ich dann nicht!

        Viele Grüße, Thomas Schwab
        …und weiter so!

    • extremecarver

      Aber wenn es kommt – dann nicht als gmapsupp.img – denn da ist DACH schon fast über der 4GB Grenze (alleine Deutschland hat 3.2GB). Also wenn nur für Basecamp.
