Our aim is to release new updates to all the maps in the very near future, but due to some changes in the tools we use (some of the tools others recommend we can’t use due to their licensing restrictions), we’re having “challenges” with the canal and cycle maps at present; we are well aware they are very out of date, and will release new maps as soon as possible.

The data comes from OpenStreetMap, which is open to anyone to update where there are errors. Firstly, I would check to see if OpenStreetMap has already been updated, but if not, create an account, and follow the guides for editing the data and make a change. When we next create our canal IMG file, it will reflect the updated information.

Yes, the maps work fine on the Garmin Oregon, although you may need to place the maps on a microSD card (that’s what we recommend)

Hi,
I am about to purchase a Garmin Oregon 400T. Will your maps work with this model?

I’ve just downloaded the canal maps. Congratulations for these. However, I have driven a length of Avon to the East of Bristol and through Bath to Bradford on Avon. On my Garmin it shows the canal to take a different route to what is in reality. Who authors the positional data? What’s the best way of correcting this?

Hi.

When will the map be updatet? It look like it is very old. I have made a lot of updates on the locks and so on through OSM.
I’m going to have summerhollyday on the canals in UK ;-O)

Best regards Søren

Work fine on a Garmin 300, and are INFINITELY better than the stock maps supplied with it. Thanks for all the hard work in supplying them. Does anybody know of anything similar for Cyprus?
