+MScottZ Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 When I bought my gps about 2 years ago, I stumbled across a website that had zip files of waypoints by state. I downladed the Colorado file that had probably 5000+ waypoints, ranging from waterfalls to airports, schools, mines.....just about everything. After a computer crash I no longer have this file. Does anyone know where to find it again? Quote Link to comment
+CiscoHiker Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Is there a way to use these files in mapsource or Gsak without having ExpertGPS? Or does one need to purchase expert GPS to use these waypoint files? Quote Link to comment
Grasscatcher Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 (edited) Easy solution.....Download the Trial version of Expert GPS (Free) then download the state file you desire (only one state allowed on the free trial) and open it with Expert GPS and then save it as a xxxx.gpx file which is compatible with a lot of softwares . I don't have GSAK but that program may open the loc file and convert it to gpx format by itself. It may be a problem opening the gpx file with Mapsource (because MS doesn't allow duplicate names to be imported). Surely someone you know already has it saved as a gpx file.
