I would like to use ovi maps in offline mode in one application for meego-harmattan. According to the qml Map element documentation, there is a Map.OfflineMode option for the connectivityMode, but this option doesnt work in practice.
Searching around i found some people claiming that offline ovi maps are possible on meego-harmattan, others (https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTMOBILITY-1116) saying that they should be, but the plugin that allows it is not easily available.
Now, this last information is dated oct 2011. I wonder whether with 2 more updates of the framework (and firmware of the phone), it became possible to use offline maps? thanks in advance
Nokia/Ovi maps don't support/allow caching afaik. But check the OSM tile support package,http://xf.iksaif.net/dev/qtm-geoservices-extras.html it seems to support caching of map tiles.
