Moving map nav also allows you to record and save the tracks you have done which allows you to view and share so you can repeat the journey. Once you import a waypoint file, go to the menu and it will show waypoints as a series of flags on a moving map. If you save those waypoints, you can share the file with others no matter what moving maps app they use because it is just a series of lats and longs. The waypoints show up as a layer over the map and you navigate yourself on the tracks and roads to those waypoints. Give the waypoint a name and you will be able to find it easily later on. If you enlarge the map, you can move the flag to an exact point. You can then either nominate a latitude and longitude or simply touch your finger on the screen to drop a “flag” icon. These can be selected by going to the menu and usually clicking a plus sign. Using moving maps, you can select points on the map which creates a waypoint file. In the first in this series, we talked about the different types of Satnav: moving maps and guidance navigation. Map and satnav expert Peter (World Mapman) Davis tell us how to plan a ride route on a GPS in this second in a series on satnav.
