My ASEAN Free GPS Map Project

For crying out loud and asking for new updates... tell us what you do after you downloaded the updated MfM map?

For me:
- Install into Mapsource
- Open Mapsource to check for anything new around my residential and office area (KBC abit).
- Check the routing/address search to some known places to see if the version is working fine. If not, report.
- If I contributed, will look for the update.
- else close Mapsource.

Wait, I also update my GPS... but only when I need to travel to unfamiliar places. Hence, I usually don't download the weekly update... to save bandwidth.

Thanks for sharing... Cheers!

For me >

1-Update into my Mapsource
2-Check my uploaded map for error so that I can edit before the next update.
3-Check for address code.
4-Checking &
5-Checking again....

GPS device..
Update once in 3 months.

for me:
i update mapsource, and update the gps. do this every week. cos i think i am a nerd.

i couldn't contribute POI that much; but the other day i thought i could contribute MFM by uploading to RS, HF, and NL, suddenly kena marah cos didn't know it actually effecting MFM in terms of downloading count.

Tak marah... No worries..
We know you are trying to help...
You can help by letting us know the error on the map..

What I do :

1-Update Mapsource + Nuvi + ETrex Vista HcX
2-Check all 3 for errors loading and report if any.
3-Check POIs vs daily travel. Unfortunately I live 1 km from office so not much to see / contribute

I do what most of you did...

After load to my nuvi 765, i check for error...like illega u turn...no right turn but nuvi say can turn ......and also how fast it do the recalculation cos i always miss the turn that the nuvi prompt me....

for me!!!

I download to mapsource and view my contribution in order to check further missing or error that being submitted by me.

And browse surrounding area that is still virgin to be in my tracking list or POI that need to recorded and contribution.

My GPS.. not every week update.. I'm happy with update my GPS every monthly.

Cheers!

For me I update into mapsource and check against my contribution to make sure they are accurate as intended. Do not update my nuvi unless I need to use it.

download before travelling...

I download to mapsource and view my contribution in order to check further missing or error that being submitted by me. Then of course update my GPS too.........almost every week
