Support www.Velomap.org Website and Map development
Please note that I only offer maps of North America to people who have an account on Openmtbmap. If you have an account please look at the download page while being logged in - then you can see the links and download the maps. Non logged in viewers of openmtbmap/velomap see this page instead.
I spend a lot of time working on the maps, working on this homepage and working on the OSM wiki/forums in order so that everyone can enjoy nice maps for mountainbiking. If you want to support me in doing that, then please donate to motivate me to continue developing.
So if you would like to have maps of North America from Openmtbmap or Velomap, please donate to me. www.velomap.org/support/membership/
Attention - this page only gives an overview of the Areas covered by the North America downloads - you can download these North America maps (if logged in) from the normal download pages - as listed here: https://www.velomap.org/download/
Areas Covered by the US-extracts (screenshots from Mapsource):
US-Midwest

And Contourlines v2 download links (separate download, needs to be downloaded and extracted once):
I use Ride With GPS (RWGPS) to plan my routes, and I use OSM as my base source on RWGPS. Will Velomaps on my Garmin still work on my routes which I download to my Garmin from RWGPS?
I assume you download tracks not routes – tracks are independant of a map. Routes (autorouting) can only be created with the same map as is on the device.
The DEM data for Velomap_us_northeast is missing. Both in the version downloaded today, as well as the 14.06.2019 version.
If I create a route in Basecamp with this map enabled, there is no elevation data.
If I create the same route with Topo US 24K Northeast (Garmin map) enabled the elevation data is there.
If I create a route in Canada with Velomap Canada enabled, the elevation is there.
I think the DEM data is simply missing from the us northeast map.
Can you check?
The us_northeast does not have the contour lines integrated – you need to download them separately. Or do you see contour lines but no DEM? Maybe uninstall (delete the us-northeast folder) and reinstall the us-northeast map from scratch
I have uninstalled us_northeast, deleted the folder and re-installed. There is still no elevation data in routes and tracks created and the graph is flat. See screenshot You do not provide separate DEM data for us_northest. See screen shot. Contour lines are shown on the map. And if the selector is put on the contour it does give the elevation. See screen shot.
By the way. I just downloaded openmtbmap-Northeast and that works properly. The is elevation data in maps made using that map exposed and the elevation map is correct.
I believe there is a problem with your Velomap US-Northeast (MD5). Or can you provide separate contours? As shown in previous screenshot they are not on the contours download page.
Sorry for the troubles – I only quickly checked the openmtbmap – and did not notice there was a bug with the contourlines included into the VeloMaps. It will be fixed in a couple of hours in the 04.04.2020 velomap us-northeast.
oh sorry, I think I fixed it back then – but actually forgot to offer the contourlines download itself. I just uploaded them. So now they are available.
I downloaded the velous-south map and notice when I zoom out on the map certain features are over emphasized, particularly Island names, they show as black squares. See the attached screen shot for what it looks like.
Well that’s the symbol for cities – you use higher in the map details – so they appear too early. I have in general prioritized Islands – not sure why this is so exaggerated in that area though – those don’t really seem to be islands anyhow – they should be tagged place=islet instead in my opinion if they are islands at all? To me this is wrong map data – not a map fault. So nothing I can solve

Hello Felix,
Plannig my trip to cross the States I nedd the North America map. After reading the information from Velomap.org I am not allowed to download this North America maps without a donation.How much should it be ?
The all maps of States you offer are covering completely the whole country?
Best wishes,
Andyktm
Hy Andyktm – you misread that. With an active account you can of course download the North America Maps.
Hi Fekix !
I have downladed five maps of usa, including the us-northeast. I noticed that the last map doesn’t have contourlines.
How to add the contourlines to this map ? Should I delete it and reinstal ?
Waiting for your answer,
andyktm
In Windows just download and rerun the installer – and tick the box. In OSx download, unpack and move according to the OSx tutorial (step 2ab) in the tutorial )
Problem Tablet gelöst! Habe eine größere SD Karte einbauen müssen und konnte nun Velomap Canada so grade installieren.
Nur schade für die unnötige Speicherkap. die Canada nimmt obwohl ich nur 2 Provinzen brauche.
Kannst Du mir bitte den link zur nachträglichen installation der Höhenlinien schicken.
Danke.
Guß Joseph
Die Höhenlinien für Kanada sind ganz normal unter den Höhenlinien auf der Downloadseite gelistet.
Die gmapsupp.img wird automatisch eingelesen in Basecamp wenn sie auf externem Datenträger angehängt ist – wenn Basecamp offen ist (nach Bearbeitung des MS Flags per gmaptool). Die etwas kompliziertere Variante (dadurch verlierst du allerdings die Addresssuche) wäre die gmapsupp.img per gpmaptool in eine neu installierbare Karte aufzusplitten –> http://gmaptool.eu/en/content/install-map-mapsource
Habe bisher aus Velomap Canada vom (Labtop Basecamp) den ausgewählten Bereich British Columbia an GPS Gerät gesendet. OK
Wie aber bekomme ich nun den Breich Brit. Col. von GPS Gerät oder vom Laptop auf mein Tablet mit Basecamp????
Da ich ja während meiner Tour zur Planung nur das Tablet benutze.
wo wird die Datei gmapp.img gespeichert kann so eine Datei nach Suche nicht finden im Velomapp Verzeichnis?
Teil der Karte auf SD Karte senden das klappt, aber wie lade ich diese Karte in Basecamp auf das Tablet so das Sie unter Karten erkannt und eingerichtet ist?
Auf meinem Laptop ist in Basecamp Canada installiert und funktioniert. Auf meinem Tablet ist ebenfalls Basecamp installiert und funktioniert, ich brauche lediglich British Columbia auf dem Tablet denn für die Installation von gesamt Canada ist nicht genügend Speicherplatz vorhanden. z.Zt habe ich mir auf dem Tablet die garmin.openstreetmap.nl British Colombia installiert und die funktioniert auch. Kann ich also aus der Canada Karte von Velomap nur BC auf das Tablet übertragen? Und wenn ja wie?
Hab dir doch schon geantwortet: Sende nur den Kartenteil den du brauchst. Lade die gmapsupp.img in Gmaptool – und dann folge dem Tutorial: http://www.gmaptool.eu/en/content/map-visible-basecamp
so wird die Karte dann in Basecamp sichtbar wenn sie auf SD-Karte eingelesen wird.
Hab ich die Möglichkeit bei Canada die einzelnen Provinzen downloaden ich brauche British Columbia u. Alberta?
Datei gesamt Canada zu groß nfür mein Tablet.
Lade die gmapsupp.img in Gmaptool – und dann folge dem Tutorial: http://www.gmaptool.eu/en/content/map-visible-basecamp
so wird die Karte dann in Basecamp sichtbar.
