Garmin's TopoActive map products that are currently available as a download are made up of sections called map segments. Each device can only hold a certain number of map segments which can cause issues if installing multiple regions of the TopoActive maps or installing them alongside other mapping products. For a coverage map of the regions and the number of map segments found in each, see the information below.

OpenStreetMap (OSM) is developed and added to by community mappers around the world. OSM is a highly detailed dataset. In many rural areas of the world, OSM has medium-to low-detailed data. Features are added and edited by community members with local knowledge. Coverage of features may vary and includes geographic locations, place names, landmarks, points of interest, hydrographic features, and land-use/land cover. OSM is an open data source. OSM also includes an open data source elevation dataset. The scale is not consistent because the OSM data is Volunteered Geographic Information. Scale detail can vary from 1:24K or better in major urban areas to much higher scales in more rural areas.
Utilizing the appropriate number of map segments for your device can help ensure your map functions correctly. For more information on the number of map segments that can be stored on a device, visit your specific model's product page on Garmin.com and review "Map Segments" on the Specs tab.
