The last complete version was compiled in January 2009 so I shall be grateful if you could indicate when you might be able to offer an update. With many thanks for offering this free product.

Secondly, many of the easier to use tools available cannot handle the whole of the UK, and you end up splitting the country up into little sections. When this happens you often find roads / rivers / railways that cut through the boundary between the sections get lost in the conversion process; our tools remove that effect, and produce a seamless map of the UK. We also cover Ireland, and a number of the smaller UK islands, which are often missed by others, due to the base OSM data they start from. We're all for supporting OpenStreetMap and their data, and are happy to offer this map for free to anyone who wants it. Based on the download figures we're seeing, these are some of the more popular Garmin images out there! It’s possible for others to produce these maps themselves, but firstly we save you the hassle.
