Hello, I do not know if this is know or not but I though I would share my experience on routing. I created a map covering southern Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky. When I try to route from Detroit to Louisville with my GPS (e-trex vista) it takes some time but it works fine. If I try the same thing with MapSource it fails and draws a straight line. The route found by the GPS (I-75 then I-71) is going through 5 different tiles. Thanks, N.

yes this is common, also MapSource behaves different than Roadtrip.Garmin uses different Algorithms. there have been reports too that different devices behave different. On Tue, Jul 13, 2010 at 10:32 AM, Nakor <nakor.osm@gmail.com> wrote:

OK. The good news though is that it works on the GPS where it is probably the most useful. On 7/13/2010 3:59 PM, Apollinaris Schoell wrote:
