Thread: Garmin City Navigator Europe NT 2014.40

may be u a right (but if find iso myy, it calculate to kauppakatu 26) and have problems to calculate route from russia( roads of russia 5.32) to europe (cn nt 2014.40) with nuvi 205(tried on two nuvi 205), on newer models(nuvi 50, nuvi150) all work fine, that's why I thought that problem with 2014.40 or garmin thus no longer support the old model

Navteq->Nokia->Here and after it Garmin have more the million POI in Europe. Both company continuously are renewed and updated its. But it is the very great work and the greatest priority have roads network segment. So collision will take place in any case.
You know the such collision with Gigantti shop in Joensuu. Only old wrong location for this store on map. When I had done Suomi POIs for me I get newest data from Gigannti official site. All seems to be OK with new address (in comment of POI) and new photo of this store, I was very glad and downloaded file to device. Ups! Nuvi navigated me to old wrong place. I check the official site info and see that the coordinate not was renewed in file. Here you are...

About nuvi 205 I have my story too. This bug was old and was occurred after update SW to 4.80 (added routes for ecoRoute and 4Gb support!!!) . It is not depend of map version and occurred on all SW version greater than 4.60. Garmin support always reply that all new SW is intended for modern maps with very tight roads network. If the route calculation algorithm would have a big gap for near roads it could jump to closest wrong road (it is true I have such mistakes on old software in France). RU and EU map was not correlated thus error is possible and you must make two path navigation to border and after. But for Nuvi 765t this error was eliminated by Garmin at time but not for cheaper 205 series. Damn it! It is interesting that route to Bothnia Suomi and Sweden with Norway could made by Nuvi 205 across Niirala-Vjartsilja but for nearest Joensuu no.
Then go new models - Garmin made as usually a clever face and said that in new device calculation methods is different with Nuvi 205 likes FIFO vs LIFO financial terms But quota of truth for EU and RU map take place in all device. At time a some devices navigated to Helsinki through Tallinn but route was much longer than
through Viborg in any settings. After Navicom added to 2014.40 detailed main roads for Estonia to RU map the problem gone on. Here you are...
The next interesting fact it is that nuvi 50, nuvi150 do not show the closest to RU region in Finland on map on some level if RU map is activated. All devices and maps is very specific.
