Renaming OSM Map on Zumo 590
 
I've recently loaded some new OSM maps onto my Garmin Zumo 590's SD card. They work fine, but I was wondering if I could rename them as when they appear on the list of installed maps there's a load of extra info cluttering things up. I renamed the files on my PC before loading them, but the data must be buried deeper in the file.

You have to edit the map name in the header using this tool ICI

OK, thanks, I'll take a look. Can the editing be done to the files on the Garmin, or in Windows before uploading?

The software is for a windows PC not for garmin unit.
You need to do whatever alterations you wish under windows.
Then copy the map to the garmin folder either on micro sd or internal mem. of unit.

Yeah, I took the SD card out of the unit añd plugged it into the PC. I managed to change the name of the map, still a bit of unnecessary info present but definitely more what I wanted. Thanks for your help.
