    Hi Mahbub,

    GeoBase will only read maps in our own native GBFS format; this includes shape data, along with extra information for routing, navigation, GeoCoding, etc. We produce GBFS files built upon map data provided by NAVTEQ and TeleAtlas, and offer files for a large number of countries, including Finland (both NAVTEQ and TeleAtlas).

    If you want to use custom data within GeoBase, for example to display all local powerlines as an overlay on a city map, then you can use our Alchemy tool to construct your own GBFS files from standard ESRI Shapefiles (extension .shp).

    I'm not familiar with .bin/.mos Geo Data, but in its current format, it will not be compatible with GeoBase or Alchemy. If it is possible to re-export this as an ESRI Shapefile, it should be possible to use them with Alchemy.

    Thanks,

    Alex
