Garmin 2019.20 Map Update Won't Be Far Away

 

Well, sooner or later, somebody would have started this thread. In both 2016 & 2017 the new maps were released on May 18, so I'm guessing the new Garmin map release will be about three weeks away.

Yep

CN Europe is still at 2018.30. I think it is unlikely that Garmin will release CN NA 2019.20 before it releases CN Europe 2019.10.

As you're aware you can no longer compare version numbers, NA went to 2019.10 after 2018.20, EU went to 2018.30, only Garmin know why smile

Having said that it's the longest gap between map updates for the EU map so I suspect there will be an update to it first now the Garmin map team have sorted the issue with NA 2019.10

Actually CN NA did have a 2018.30 version. Here is the release date chronology (based on jgermann's FAQ) over the past year. I suspect Garmin will continue this pattern and release EU 2019.10 NTU before NA 2019.20.

NA 2018.20 - May 18, 2017
EU 2018.10 NT - May 27, 2017
EU 2018.20 NTU - Aug 23, 2017
NA 2018.30 - Oct 11, 2017
EU 2018.20 NT - Nov 08, 2017
EU 2018.30 NTU - Dec 13, 2017
NA 2019.10 - Jan 24, 2018
EU 2019.10 NTU - ??????
NA 2019.20 - ??????

Ah ...

... ok. I knew we got out of step somewhere along the way, thought it was when you guys jumped to 2019 numbering but it must have been earlier smile

Map versions.

You are probably thinking of late 2015/early 2016 when Garmin announced they were changing from 4 map releases per year to 3. For some reason on the NA map they jumped strait from 2016.20 to 2017.10, skipping the 2016.30 version. For EU, they had a 2016.30 version. Go figure! smile

paper maps

I keep a truckers atlas beside the seat in my pickup truck, comes in handy when the gps gets stupid.. it helps if you still know how to read a map tho, I would guess 99% do not know how to read a map anymore.

Well ...

I suspect many don't even know what a map is smile

Well ...

I wouldn't base an update prediction on Express. Mostly the updates for that are to resolve issues with the myriad of watches and other fitness devices that they are now concentrating on.

I suppose the delayed

I suppose the delayed release of the Garmin 2019.20 map files may be attributed to the release of the half-baked 2019.10 map files. Better to hold off the release with a solid software package without the confusion of the 2019.10/2019.11 versions.

Another Week Gone By

And still no update.

Its not my fault I told them to "GET IT OUT" they just don't listen to me.
