<div>Hi,</div>
<div>I normally do it this way to have an offline basemap either
for the mobile phone or the notebook:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. Install QuickMapServices (an add contributed pack in the
settings) for a variety of background layer. There are also
different flavours of OSM, so pick your favourite.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2. Install the (tagged as experimental) QTiles plugin.</div>
<div>Assuming you have to work in certain area at a time only, set
your canvas to this are.</div>
<div>In QTiles, you can choose between .zip and .mbtiles (but
those mbtiles work within QGIS for already a while). Pick
mbtiles for file creation.</div>
<div>Choose your zoom level carefully. If you do not need too much
detail, 15 will be enough. See
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://gis.stackexchange.com/a/7443">http://gis.stackexchange.com/a/7443</a> for detail which zoom level
represents which map scale.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For me this setting resulted in 150MB file for an area of ca.
100 square kilometers. Higher zoom level or multiple zoom levels
will let this grow exponentially. You will have to test a bit to
find the right settings for your purpose.</div>
<div>The creation of this mbtile will take a while cause it has to
download all the tiles for the area one after another.</div>
<div>So better test with a really small area before starting a big
download.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Hope this helps</div>
<div>Bernd</div>
