Lowrance with ExpertGPS
 
Hi all, I live in the UK and am new to the forum.

I plan to go on my first overland trip for two weeks to Morocco in April 2017. I need advice about GPS maps of the country. I am considering purchasing a Lowrance HDS and it looks like an ExpertGPS map of Morocco is available.

I would welcome comment, from users, on map software of Morocco for Lowrance. Many thanks,

Rick

A quick read says that it is a free download, both program and map.

You then need to do a comparison between that map data, OSM data and maybe Oalfs ...
OSM data can be found/viewed here OpenStreetMap

Thank you.

Discovered https://www.gpsbabel.org/ this morning. Looks like it's possible to transfer Google Earth points to Lowrance usr files.

OSM converted to AT5 files
 
I've managed to convert Open Street Map to AT5 files to use on my Lowrance Elite 7 Ti using Lowrance Insight Map Creator software.

Now, to see how to convert some topographical overlay files ...
