Default Useful links for creating your own custom maps

While fiddling around getting the Cyprus map to load on my Zumo, I found the following useful links:

Hey David,

Just used the IMG2GPS v2.81 as in this link

Upload Garmin Maps to GPS

to convert and upload the Cyprus map to my Zumo 550 and after a bit of fiddleing it worked OK. The program would not recognise the Zumo on usb to do a 'upload to GPS' but what I did was to select 'Folder / Card, then select the Garmin drive (mine was E), and then the Garmin folder. Selected create file to folder and lo and behold when I put my Zumo on the Cyprus map was there.

Ian
