GPS Trackmaker works differently enough and also calibrates imported images ( though not as well as ExpertGPS because it's only 2 point calibration instead of 3 point calibration on ExpertGPS )Īll that to say. ExpertGPS trackmaking is only like drawing with a pencil - though you can export "routes" to your GPSr as a track. We ranked the best ExpertGPS alternatives and sites like. I also use GPS Trackmaker and purchased it because it handles track creation better than ExpertGPS. I've heard other programs do similar things, but since I've already paid for ExpertGPS, I make it do what I need it to instead of paying more money for software that does the same. for me the important functions are a calender, that i can see my routes, and a place to store my gpx files, and view the route in a wysiwig, and save back to my device (delorme) as needed. this program is probably good for folks that want serious map capabiliies. Even on a recent trip to Oklahoma, I found the ExpertGPS map data to be really lacking compared to the more up-to-date imagery from Google.Īdditionally, I use ExpertGPS to do map plotting for aviation procedure development because I like the way it imports CSV files that I give it from Excel. The word demo was accross the screen and i could'nt really see anythig.

I don't use the downloaded imagery/topo maps from ExpertGPS because I'm overseas. The reason I bought ExpertGPS was its ability to do better than average map calibration of electronic map images of my own. Hi all, I use a Garmin GPSMap 60Csx since 2009 for nesting Passerine point-counts in my region. ExpertGPS is the most user friendly software, with the largest number of different systems I know. For folks with ready topo maps available, Google Earth would probably do the trick. I manage a large amount of waypoints and tracks.
