Having the same problem. The current (2024-12-28) opentopomap for Canada is 4.3GB uncompressed.

Referring to previous posts - The solution of creating an installation file and sending a fragment
of the map from Base Camp in the case of an img file exceeding 4GB is an effective solution,
but after sending to the device (not everyone knows about it) the map loses the ability to search by addresses.

Losing the search may not be an obstacle if the device has another map of this area with an address database.

I used a different solution, I removed DEM data from the .img file, I have search by addresses, the size of the .img file - 2.66 GB.

Considering that you are a new user of the forum I am willing to help you solve the problem with the map file.

Thank you so much for the help! I'd be curious how you went about doing it, so I could do my own in the future.
