My ASEAN Free GPS Map Project

While there are a dozen brands to choose from, only Garmin’s hardware is supported by the local MalFreeMaps community (www.

malfreemaps.com), made up of enthusiasts who regularly contribute points of interest, new roads and even identify errors on the maps.

Together with the Garmin hardware, MalFreeMaps provides an up-to-date map of anything from your outdoor trails to the wetmarket. Out on the beaten path, there’s also a topographic map which can be easily integrated with the base map to help you find the best path back to civilisation.
