  • Open Map Project Print E-mail
    By Rob Mech
    The Open Map Project is a project designed to combine maps from various user contributions and combine and organize them into regions whereby users can download maps for their area.

    This project was started in March 2003 by Robert Mech as an opportunity for end users to create higher detailed maps than those available by Garmin's Cartography. These maps are free for download and use by anyone. It is hoped that the end users contribute new maps to in order to make this project a useable database for everyone.


    User Contributions This project can only succeed with user contributions. If you have a golf course, park, or other detail that you want to submit to the project they are openly accepted and appreciated. They will be listed here by US State or Country. Please submit the area for your US State or country to submissions@keenpeople.com
    You only need to include the filename.txt file for that area. We will compile the .TXT file into a .IMG and include it into the regions_pv.txt for that area. Please "Attach" your file and do not include it into plain text or the body of the email.
