Other than the Garmin format, will there be any other format release, for example, Mapking, igo, etc etc etc...

If the specific compiler was needed, what is the way or the cost of the compiler and is it worth or enough to use the contribution fund to purchase the compiler?

See here:

How about change the name of "MFM who am I thread" to something else more interesting, I can't think out for a name, but I saw not much people interesting about this thread.

In future, MFM might play a role like Yellowpages, for example, a special page or site that might allow people to upload all the business and non business POI, coordinate, address, contact, etc etc etc and people might come to search for it. In final word, just like a Yellowpages, but with coordinate or some photo too.

I notice that MFM map doesnt has any clear marking/indication for each cities. I thk its useful for a quickchk to find out distance between cities, chk out places, etc. Chk out the comparison here:

Jst my personal opinion. Hope it helps in our MFM Map improvements Thanks

Would like to suggest what I have suggested here on another thread:

viewtopic.php?p=14033#p14033

To start including the Singapore maptile into the next version of MFM mapset, no matter how sparse/incomplete the map is. The incompleteness will entice and encourage all SG users to start contributing tracks and POIs again.

Thanks.

Oh, they're not building it from scratch?

From what I understand, the earlier MFM SG mapset is being drawn based on Jerome/MSM's map. That was the reason why the polylines have exactly similar coordinates with MSM map, including the traps.

Would it be better to create a "plain" Singapore maptiles and let us (the contributors) to help in building the map from scratch?

Thanks.

my suggestion in this thread
1) i think we can cooperation with another country in ASEAN like Thailand and Indonesia...
so all ASEAN map can be compile together...
so if BOSS can, set link with the another country forum..
so the forum can have many forumer from another country so many idea can be give by them and on the other hand...

2) How we set bus route? every route have code, eg U80 for Shah Alam-KL and T68 for Shah Alam-Kelang...
its useful for foreigner and handheld GPS owner for 1st time use bus in KL and Selangor, each bus have code only...

Great ideas, i personally like the idea of bus route, but... will it be too many lines eventually and gets into confusing, if we can clear this up, it will be very useful...
