Routing basics

[RGDan59]

Can someone please point me to basic reference information on creating routes, track-logs, waypoints, etc. I am in the process of creating my first real tour route and I need to get it right. Thanks, Dan

@RGDan59 You could find a route in the RouteXpert library to see how routes can be embellished with additional information.

I'll look at this, thanks Nick!

Thanks Rob, exactly what I was looking for.

Is it best practice to start a route at my home, for example, or a nearby point I'll be passing?

[Nick Carthew]

@RGDan59 I always place the first route point 200 m from the actual start location. Most navigation devices will route you to the start.
