+Mike & Jess Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Is there a way to obtain data for offline use from GeoCaching.com? We do regular trips across country from Northern Ontario to Nova Scotia. What I would love to have, is data (i.e. CSV file) that I can import into Google Earth or Map Point on the laptop. With the GPS attached to the laptop, I can track where we are on the map, but would love to see GeoCaches listed as well. The data I am looking for is not the whole GeoCache coordinate system. If I could obtain lists from Lon/Lat X to Lon/Lat Y would be good. Mike Quote Link to comment

+rambrush Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 I use GSAK do the query and have created different data bases for the variety of states or areas. I then create a HTML file which gets placed on my PDA for quick reference. This same file can be used offline for the laptop to retrieve the info. Quote Link to comment
