913/397.8200 or 800/800.1020, Monday–Friday, 8 AM–5 PM

Map Data Information

One of Garmin’s goals is to provide customers with the

most complete and accurate cartography available to us at a

reasonable cost. We use a combination of governmental and

private data sources, which we identify as required in product

literature and copyright messages displayed to the consumer.

Virtually all data sources contain inaccurate or incomplete data

to some degree. This is particularly true for areas outside the

United States, where complete and accurate digital data is either

not available or is prohibitively expensive.

If the data source lacks a feature, or if an item is mislocated or

misidentiﬁed, it will be incorrectly identiﬁed or missing in the

Garmin cartography product as well. Each MapSource product

has its strengths and weaknesses, and not all are suitable for

every purpose. Please keep this in mind as you use and enjoy

the beneﬁts the cartography provides.

Garmin encourages customers to report any errors found in our

electronic maps by completing our online Error Reporting Form

in the Cartography section of our Web site: http://www.garmin

.com/cartography/mapSource/errorForm.html.
