Description (last modified by Manu1400)

Would be nice to have JOSM offering the function of generating a GArmin Map which could be download to a Garmin device, from the element it has in memory (e.g. after download from OSM).
It would be quite handy when preparing your ride using OSM data using JOSM:

  1. download the OSM data of the area of interest;
  2. dram your route using JOSM using the OSM data as backgound
  3. download the map info to Garmin device
  4. download the route to Garmin device

Even a non routable map would do the job, but routable would be for use appreciated.
Go & ride thanks to OSM, and discover missing trails as you ride!!!!
Whatever the fate of this request, JOSM is a great tool. Thansk to all involved in its maintenance!!!

That would mean that mkgmap had to be integrated. IMHO this won't happen.

My solution for your wish looks like this:

  • create a new layer
  • draw your route
  • save/export as gpx
  • use gpsbabel to convert and send it to your garmin device

The only potential improvement would be a plugin doing the export and calling gpsbabel.
