best format to download

[Mike wiruth]

Hello, What is the best format to download? Not only for using offline maps but for transferring to my garmin xt?
Thanks

@Mike-wiruth The standard and recommended format is GPX 1.1

However, this isn't necessary at all for using the MRA Next app offline.

The important thing is that the maps are available offline and that the routes are synced.

Everything else works automatically when you navigate with MRA Next.

If you're absolutely sure you don't have cell service, you can also navigate completely offline right away.

To do this, simply go to the app's navigation settings, select “Route Calculation,” and enable the “Offline Navigation” option

When you (still) use Basecamp I would recommend GPX 1.1 (route, track, POI).
You can then plan the route using the ‘recalculate’ option and afterwards easily check for any discrepancies against the track you’ve recorded. If you send the route and track from Basecamp to the GPS via a cable, you can be sure that everything stays the same.
I’ve been doing it this way for years and have never had any problems with the route!
