You can't add routing or voice navigation to these files, it has to be included in the maps when they're compiled. If you search this blog, you'll find many sources for Garmin maps, some of which include routing.

I went to Planet.osm I used WinWget to down load an entire map from www.informationfreeway.org. The boundary box I used was -3.5,51.5,-1.0,53.5 which gave me the whole are. When I first converted the map into Garmin img format the main road such as the A69 were shown twice once on their true course and a second time in a series of straight lines resembling a staircase. However I downloaded the latest version of cgpsmapper and that fixed the problem. I solved the problem of obtaining a map showing the whole C2C route.

I have down loaded osm map data and converted them into Garmin Img maps for importing into Mapscource and down loading into a GPS set hopefully the Garmin Edge 705 which I m about to buy. I have downloaded five seperate maps one for each day of the ride each less ha 0.25 square degrees I have two questions 1) is it possible to join the five maps together to form one continous map? 2) The roads and other features of the map are broken and fragmentry near the edges. Is there any way of avoiding this or fixing it ? reCAPTCHA

If you want to go a step further, the wiki also gives an example of how to convert a GML file to a shapefile using ogr2ogr.
