    Free garmin maps for your gps

    I want to share with you this website I found online that has FREE maps of Europe, The Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania for Garmin GPS.

    http://www.mapsntrails.com/en

    Not only maps but also trails and tips and tools to make GPS fun! Check it out.

    By the way, it has several Hong Kong maps, Liv!

    Unfortunately, the one I am looking for "Taiwan" is not available. Maybe I will find it when I get there. Hope it is not in chinese characters.

    And yes, Roadguide Philippines garnered almost 3.6 stars from 5 votes.

    Are you familiar with this website, Jan?

      Philippines.shapefiles

      I downloaded the Philippines.shapefiles so that I can use in my GIS. The resolution is not so good. The coastlines are jagged and some of the islands are categorized as water bodies.

        Hi d1754. I have a kmz file of merged Philippine cities/municipalities that i converted from shp files, not sure if they're of much better resolution than the ones you have though. I also have barangay shp files that are of better resolution than the cities/municipalities file but they are not 100% complete for the Philippines. You can PM me if you want a copy...
