Title: Splitting sqlitedb maps?
Post by: rws on September 10, 2012, 22:23:22
I have a 6+ GB map I created in Mobile Atlas Creator that won't load onto a sd card.  Is there software that I could use to split the map into smaller sections?

You could use this sqlite in mobac again and create smaller files from this source, for example split by zoom levels. When you put them in one folder locus will use them as one map.
If one zoom level is still too big you could try to recompress the tiles for this zoom level  inside mobac.

https://mobac.svn.sourceforge.net/svnro ... source.xml (https://mobac.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mobac/tags/MOBAC%201.9/v1.9.8%20final/mapsources/Example%20custom%20tile%20SQLite%20source.xml)

Never did this myself...

thanks for the advice

I went ahead and created 2 separate maps in MOBAC...as the tiles were in the tile store it went quick.
