I converted my Polish format map into Shp file with the help of mp2shp tool and compiled with the MPC. img file created successfully. Routing is preserved but there seems some POI mapping problem between GPSmapedit types and Garmin POI Types in mp2shp. I hope it will be solved by mapping correct type in _typ file.
I have some question please.
1 : mp2shp created POI.shp and points.shp files. What is diference between two because both had POI in it.
2 : Visibility Level of POI is different in IMG file created by MPC which do not match with the zoom level in MP file. What attribute in SHP/DBF file control the zoom level to manually edit.
3 : Does Arcgis has some add-on that could provide environment to work with Routing attributes, Polyline and point attributes within arcgis, compatible with Garmin MPC similar to GPSmapedit.
Currently my workflow is to digitize the lines in Global mapper ( it facilitates by inserting vertices or splits poly-line at intersection for creation of routing nodes in GPSmapedit). Then using Gpsmapedit to complete POI and Routing features. Then use mp2shp to convert into shp files and compile With MPC.
I am basically interested to add 3d models in my map at latter stage that's why I am interested in MPC.
