| Anyone know if there is a map of Malta that would load into a Garmin? I
have a feeling that the place hasn't even been fully mapped - let alone
"GPSed", but it has to be worth asking the question!

I made one last year. It's available here: http://tinyurl.com/3xzjkh
It has to be said, that it's not brilliant, but it might give you a clue as
to roughly where you are and where you heading. I had lots of bother
calibrating it and I came to the conclusion that the original paper map I
scanned, was the source of the problem.

I used Mapsource to view the map ...... and then load it to my gps ( legend
+ Nüvi660)

| Thanks Phil. I now have this loaded in my Nuvi.
I couldn't get SendMap20 to recognise the Nuvi, so ended up using SendMap20
to create GMAPSUPP.IMG, then manually copied that to the Garmin directory on
the Nuvi. Seems to work. Off to Malta in the New Year!!
Ta for your help.

| Phil, just a quick note to say thanks. I used your map once or twice during
my recent visit to Malta and it helped.
Rumour has it that Malta is going to be officially mapped soon --- hopefully
worth the wait!
Thanks again.
