What I do is the following (described how i think a program could do it):

I'll upload a 1°x2° test area map of this stuff within the next days, in case someone wonders what the hell this guy is talking about. ;-)

OK, I finally managed to complete the test area map, it's uploaded here: http://osm-topo.bplaced.net/download/topo-garmin.zip Just the elevation coloring tiles and the .typ file for use in QLandkarteGT (or mapsource if you know how to install a map) can be downloaded here: http://osm-topo.bplaced.net/download/topo-gelaende-qlandkarte.zip Some pictures and a description in german can be found here: http://osm-topo.bplaced.net If someone is interested, I can also provide the source .osm-Files for the elevation coloring plus the corresponding style file. cheers, Martin
