We are investigating a potentially serious error that could result in the database being corrupted.

If you have already upgraded to BaseCamp 3.0.3 there are a few steps you can do to minimize the risk to your data:
  • Do not switch back to an prior version. The database optimizations that were made for 3.0.3 cannot be read in any earlier version.
  • Backup your %appdata%\garmin\basecamp folders before starting the application.
  • Do not attempt to re-download any existing BirdsEye data. New downloads should be OK. The root cause of the issue seems to be with re-downloading BirdsEye imagery that was only partially downloaded in 3.0.2.


This post will be updated as more information is available.
