Garmin Tread img file issues with Place icons

Hi, I've recently moved from my Garmin Montana 700i to a Garmin Tread SxS Edition. I have found issues with the maps, and I wonder if anyone can help. The issue is that the place points for multiple tags from OSM are not displayed in the Garmin Tread, for example, shops, Gates/barriers, toilets, accommodation and others. This is clearly an issue with the Garmin Device, however if I can't find a way to fix it, it will render the use of custom, OSM maps in newer generations of garmin devices potentially unusable. Anyone has a "debug" OSM file that can be used to help with the investigation of this issue or any ideas about the issue? Cheers Joao

I suppose the first thing to find out if it displays any of the Garmin default customizable pois, 0x11500 -0x1171f You may find that shops are indexed but not displayed . r Nick On 04/08/2023 13:50, Joao Almeida wrote:

Thank you Nick, do you have a list of the "default garmin" Customizable pois? I'm struggling to find info because POIS normally refer to Map points added manually as additional points on the map. While what I'm looking for is the actual map points added during compilation from OSM. Cheers Joao

Joao, Garmin uses types 0x11500 ,0x11501 .... up to 0x1171F r Nick On 05/08/2023 22:35, Joao Almeida wrote:

Hi Joao, mkgmap can create a map with all (?) possible POI. See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Mkgmap/help/usage#Test_map Maybe this helps to find out what you need.

Ok, so first of all. I feel dumb... I cannot believe I've read through that page so many times and never realised that option was available. I've been looking for something like this for ages... First testing tells me that the Tread needs a complete rework of my style and typ file. I've managed to get a POI icon to be displayed as expected by using one of the icons that the Tread is displaying using the "debug" map from mkgmap. Here is a screenshot of the icons in Basecamp vs the icons on the Tread. Now for the painstaking process of matching what the tread wants to see with my style and typ files...

Ideally a set of OSM data in .osm format with a small area with 1 of each individual polygon, way, and poi would be the greatest tool to create styles and typs for these newer devices that don't seem to be following the standard mkgmap output. Does such a dataset exist? Joao On 6/08/2023 10:56 pm, Joao Almeida wrote:
