EasyGPS

Share data between a GPS and a computer

Tim Smith, Computeract!ve 21 Jan 2008

EasyGPS is a free tool for sharing GPS waypoints and routes between a computer and a GPS device. It is ideal for enthusiasts of the geocaching hobby.

It can transfer information between GPS devices from Garmin, Magellan and Lowrance. The waypoints are listed in order with a map showing the route. This map is only the information included on the device, it does not come with any maps.

Geocaching information can be downloaded in the geocaching format gpx and then reformatted for the devices. It can even list geocaching sites in order of distance from your home for planning trips. Routes and waypoints can then be copied back to the GPS device.

It can work with different units of measurement, whether metric or imperial are preferred.
