cannot search for street/address when sending to device via Mac Garmin MapInstall
My map was a splitted into four tiles compiled with mkgmap r1867 and gmapibuilder.py. I installed the map to mac RoadTrip. I can search for streets using roadtrip. But when I send the maps to my nuvi 1310 using Garmin's MapInstall, I can't search for streets anymore. In nuvi, "Where to" > "Address" then a message will appear "No Map Data Available". The map is available here for anyone to test: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/607635/osm-ph_gps_maps/dev/osmph_macroadtrip_latest_... -- cheers, maning ------------------------------------------------------ "Freedom is still the most radical idea of all" -N.Branden wiki: http://esambale.wikispaces.com/ blog: http://epsg4253.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------

I installed your map on my Mac and viewed it using the latest BaseCamp beta[1]. When I attempted to search for addresses, BaseCamp immediately indicated that address searches were not supported by the map. I then tried a quick recompile of the Philippines extract from Geofabrik with the latest locator build, and could at least search for addresses in BaseCamp. Therefore I would assume there is something in your compilation chain which is causing this problem. What splitter/mkgmap/gmap-builder options do you use? Cheers.

Dear Clinton, Thanks for testing. I tried other maps known to have search address enabled and my unit cannot use the address search as well. I'm inclined to conclude that this is device specific (mine is Nuvi 1310) On Wed, Jun 15, 2011 at 2:01 AM, Clinton Gladstone <clinton.gladstone@googlemail.com> wrote:
