UK Map on EasyGPS

Hi,

I created a map of the UK & Ireland for use in EasyGPS using data from nearby.org.uk (Mr.Barry Hunter). My Garmin I3 favourites which I backedup now show on the map. The map only has upto County boundaries so it isn't too detailed but useful to see the favourite on a UK map than on a blank screen. This file I created in itself is about 2MB. I don't know if anyone would be interested..

download it from here:

http://MaFt.co.uk/garmin/UK_Ireland.zip

unzip it then either drag and drop into easyGPSor click on 'open', locate the file and the map should show up.

cheers

Sorry if this is a daft question! Stupid

I've followed MaFt's instructions and can open prasadm's map in EasyGPS, and my Favourites in another window, but how do I combine the two to make them appear on the map? Confused

It's a .gpx file which you open from EasyGPS itself.

This will load a map of UK into EasyGPS - showing outlines of counties. Then open your list of waypoints in EasyGPS - these show in a separate tab. Select the ones you want to look at on the map, copy them and paste them back into the map tab - they then display on the map.

Don't save the map on closing - unless you want your latest waypoints to be saved on the map also.

Just a quick thought.

The UK map for EasyGPS only has detail of county boundaries and is useful for looking a the relative position of a number of waypoints.

POI Edit (www.poiedit.com) gives you the ability to have waypoints displayed on either MapPoint (if you have it installed) or Google Maps - which shows roads etc. You can use custom maps as well if you prefer.
