Hello everybody, Opentopomap for Garmin seems to have a rendering issue along the borders of Germany when used with gpsmap 65s (the only device I can test this on). A screenshot is available here: screenshot Does anyone have an idea what could be the cause or whom I could contact to report this as a bug? |

Looking at the web version it looks ok. https://opentopomap.org/#map=9/48.3389/7.9102 I think the problem is with that particular download of opentopomap for your garmin. They issue updates and sometimes it goes wrong. The creators of the download would have to test it with a garmin each time, which, as we know takes a bit of time. They may not go through that check each time they do an update. I download England's opentopo occasionally and once it didn't work, but it's usually an excellent version of OSM for a garmin, there maybe a contact on the site, or just wait for a re-issue. NOTE I have not used basecamp much recently but i think you could send bits of the basecamp version to your garmin, although not the contours?? because of the separate layers, just an idea. EDIT link to report opentopo issues https://github.com/der-stefan/OpenTopoMap/issues The issue I had a few years ago. https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/76566/opentopomap-and-gb-img-download-for-garmin-devices

Hi, thanks for your reply. The issue in your thread does sound similar. In my case it does not seem to be an issue with a particular download since I tried it with downloads from different dates across several weeks (if the date of the map means anything) and they all showed the same gaps. It looks as if certain tiles are not added to the Garmin version.
The website has no contact option, or none that I could find. You may find a contact here but they are volunteers. They may see this question and then fix it. https://opentopomap.org/about#details edit and there is a report errors link in the text.
