Re: make own maps
extrack your track with nutrak (garmin), bin2gps (papago)
edit your gpx tracks with mapsource, convert to gdb and send back to your gps.
or edit with mapedit and compile with cgpsmaper to got your "own map".

Re: make own maps
but, if you want to contribute to mfm,
it's more easyly to you to get "new release map", someone would drawing map for you.
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5970
viewtopic.php?p=144514#p144514
so, you just send your track (in gdb format) to this related forum project

Most of mfm members surely wil support mfm. Eg; like me, i use mfm map instead of msm map-which their map re lot more simple, jz copy n paste. But, it wil be great too, if we re to ve our own custom map. Least, we can correct the map to sue our own need. I think, mfm sld delete al the unimportant stuffs frm their map n pays more attention to their routing problems st. Al the best MFM, wil always support MFM.

I would suggest using GPS Mapedit (Shareware) for most of the mapping for Garmin and Use CGPSMAPPER (Free version) to experiment with your tracks.
You will find it fun and very enjoyable.
Cheers,
Kelvin.

Eg; like an ordinary kopitiam or bak kut teh - we dont need such an information. I think more than one mapper who was adding it into the map. Cos, some may ve shown up triple at search. I suggest mfm can divide their mapper. Eg; each mapper wil only cover 100km radius from their places.
