Good Afternoon Friends,
I have created a custom map using many of the steps in this tutorial:
/how-to-create-garmin-topo-maps/
I am an ArcGIS user and so some of the datasets (roads for example) I developed using ArcMap. I believe I got the format of those right to make GlobalMapper happy. The .mp files created in step 8 and the img files created in part 9 look just fine when viewed in GPSMapEdit. The preview, setup, and installation files appeared to work fine. I installed the resulting .exe on my computer and can see it in both BaseCamp and in MapSource.
However, I am not able to upload these to my Garmin GPSMap 60CSx. When I use BaseCamp, in the MapInstall section, I select Continue after selecting the device - and I get an error message. See the attached .doc for screen shots of this message (the shots are the same screen, just with the error messaged panned down a bit more in each one. In MapSource, I select the Map Tool I can't get any 'tile' outlines to appear so that I can select them for loading.
I am guessing the problem is perhaps in my preview file . . . any suggesting, ideas, thoughts, would be much appreciated!!!
Also, I have included on the attached .doc:
-Screen shot of release_v1.00 directory (page 5)
-screen shot of installed dir for this map (page 6)
I have also attached the .nsi file I used.
