OpenStreetMap is open data which means you are free to use it as long as you credit OpenStreetMap and its contributors. The other option is to use maps from OpenStreetMap, which is a free wiki world map built by volunteers and contributors. On top of having to pay for the maps, it's actually pretty hard to navigate the Garmin website and find the correct download for Japan.

One option is to buy the Garmin Map of Japan and install it on your Garmin. There are a couple of ways to get your Garmin working normally while in Japan. Thankfully, there is a free solution and I'll outline the step by step process to get your Garmin device working in Japan today. We’ve had countless cyclists set up and check their Garmin before leaving and be faced with the thought of not having their maps, routes or a working Garmin with them on their trip. This is a common occurrence for overseas riders. You uploaded all of your cycling routes to your Garmin before arriving and as you turn on your device from Europe or North America the maps don’t seem right. They seem strange and kind of broken. You’ve been training on the bike, studying some local phrases, made a list of food you want to eat and planned all the amazing places you are going to visit. You’ve arrived in Japan brimming with excitement for your cycling trip. We'll show you the steps to downloading and installing OpenStreetMap on your Garmin so you can start exploring with your GPS today. Devices for aviation have not been tested so far.Do you want to use your Garmin GPS device in Japan? If so this post is for you. On devices that are exclusively used in cars (nüvi series) the map will probably not work without restrictions. Otherwise the image buildup will be very slow and there can be gaps in the map if the working memory is too small. However, you should not download the entire map of Europa to less powerful devices in one go, but choose MapSource sections instead. It should also work for older marine devices. This chart also works on outdoor devices with marine mode (e.

It is particularly designed to adapt to the options of marine devices, which are rather limited compared to those of outdoor devices. Thus, a special OpenSeaMap chart was developed for owners of Garmin marine devices. This lock also takes effect when OSM cards are involved. Garmin has built in a locking mechanism in newer marine devices to prevent older Bluecharts (without G2) from being used (Message: "Karte nicht kompatibel" ). Maps that are displayed perfectly on Garmin outdoor or travel devices generally do have the same quality on marine devices and are therefore unusable. Without TYPE files, however, the priority of polygons cannot be defined. In order to display polygons, only a few clearly defined colours and textures are available. So far, Garmin marine devices do not support TYPE files (for freely definable symbols, colours and textures). Unfortunately, they did not implement lane assist guides or Bluechart Vision. For this reason, a partial support for NT and Bluechart (G2) was implemented.

However, outdoor devices were designed to be used in a car or on a boat as well. The Bluechart version does not offer green meadows, brown fields or even tree symbols in a forest. All sea maps, either traditional Bluechart, G2 or G2 Vision, work without TYPE files, as these do not display particularly detailed or multi-coloured images on shore. However, Bluechart G2 Vision only works in combination Only work on Garmin nüvi devices, whereas the very detailed and colourful topographic maps are meant for use in outdoor devices. NT maps with lane assist guides and traffic information New maps are only compatible with the device for the respective target group. Over time, the various Garmin devices for car, outdoor and marine applications have evolved in different directions. Outdoor, by Mapsource + Multistorage (only 12MB)
