Garmin OpenStreetMap -Correction

 
Thu, 09/13/2018 - 11:47pm

I have attempted many times to make a correction to a OSMap, but I have not had any success. I am looking for a contact for either OSM or another account member, to whom I can forward this information so changes can be made to the map.

Since Garmin uses HERE maps. Why not go directly to them with the corrections. They have a website just for that purpose.
https://mapcreator.here.com/
I have not used it. So give it a try and let me know how it works out.

MapCreator

I am on MapCreator all the time and can try to fix an error for you, but I am not on OSM (Garmin doesn't use OSM anyway by default)

Garmin OpenStreetMap -Correction

It seems that the road in question is correct on the Garmin released map, but not on the Garmin OpenStreetMap.

I am still investigating on how to submit correction to OSM

Thanks
