Shellback's New Garmin Map...

Ron,

This is what the map should look like on your Garmin (at some zoom). I used these colors to minimize the image file size.

This wasn't too hard to figure out. Anyone can do this.

This is just the jpeg image file. I will calibrate this image with Oziexplorer then save it as a raster file (.map file).

Next I will import the image file into the map vectorization program and vector the file.

Just wanted to see if I could do this. You just my guinea.

A 1000 acre lake is being built about 3 miles away and I will be making a map for it. I need the practice.

I am enjoying the challenge.

Tom

Huh? Ya lost me at Oziexplorer, but that's a sweet map, just what I was looking for. I gotta say, I'm dumb as a post when it comes to computer jargon. So will this be a file that can be saved on my Mapsource program like waypoints, then loaded onto my data card when needed? I truly appreciate you working on this. Thanks, tom

Cane Pole:

Would a map like this work on the HB 987 with the new update?

Thanks
