BaseCamp supports GARMIN GPS devices with camerassuch as the or theas well ascameras with integrated GPS.Unlike MapSource, BaseCamp supports access to maps onµSD/SD-memory cards. If your computer has a slot for SD cards (or if youhave a SD-to-USB adapter), you may plug in the µSD/SD memory card intoyour computer directly. Alternatively, you may insert the µSD/SD memorycard into your GPS device and connect the GPS with your computer using an USBcable.
The former is usually the faster method.If you transfer maps from a computer to a GPS device usingMapSource, all previously loaded maps will be erased. With BaseCamp on theother hand, you have the choice of either erasing previously loaded maps orleave them on the GPS. Preloaded maps will never be erased, neither byMapSource nor by BaseCamp.There are significant conceptional differences betweenMapSource and BaseCamp regarding data storage.
MapSource supports saving datain any number of files. BaseCamp stores all objects (waypoints, routes, tracks,pictures etc.) in one collection ('My Collection'). You may create any numberof folders, subfolders and lists within your collection, but a particularobject must exist only once within the whole collection. Therefore, you cannotcreate multiple objects of the same type with the same name, such as more thanone waypoint with the name 'Start'. On the other hand, a particular object maybe referenced in any number of lists. Lists, folders and the completecollection may be exported to and imported from files.To exchange data between MapSource and BaseCamp, you caneither use 'copy and paste' - which supports only one type of objects (e.g.waypoints) to be transferred per operation - or you may use various types offiles, such as GDB, GPX or TCX files.For fitness devices such as the Edge and Forerunnerseries, there is also a software called 'Training Center' which supportsadditional data such as speed and heart rate.

Product Overview. The various programs of the GARMIN MapSource productfamily support different geographical regions on one hand and differentfunctions on the other hand.For some regions, the maps are available on CDrom or DVDas well as on µSD/SD memory card (µSD is also written as microSD).µSD/SD memory card means that the maps are stored on an µSD memorycard but there is also an µSD-to-SD adapter included which means thatthese memory cards are compatible with GPS devices with a slot for SD memorycards as well as with devices with a slot for µSD memory cards. What arethe advantages and disadvantages of maps on CDrom/DVD compared to maps onµSD/SD memory cards?
Advantages and disadvantages of maps on CDrom/DVD:. Advantages: You may use the maps on a GPSdevice as well as on a computer. This makes planing much easier and allows totransfer data such as waypoints, routes and tracks between a GPS and acomputer. For most maps, updates will become available on an approximatelyyearly basis (charges may apply). Disadvantages: The maps must be unlocked for aparticular GPS device - for most products (e.g. City Navigator) you can unlockthe maps for only one device, for some products (e.g.
Swiss Topo) for twodevices. In addition, the detailed maps must be transferred from the computerto the GPS device, which may require a significant amount of time, depending onthe amount of data that you wish to transfer.Advantages and disadvantages of maps on µSD/SD memory cards:. Advantages: The maps are immediately availableas soon as you plug in the memory card. In addition, you may use the maps onany number of devices, but only on one device at the time. Disadvantages: Only the program BaseCampsupports viewing the maps on memory cards on a computer, this feature is notsupported by MapSource, see also BaseCamp versus MapSource. In addition, theGPS has to have a SD or µSD slot and this slot will be occupied by thememory card and will not be available for other purposes such as a language ortravel guide. Also, no updates will be available for maps stored onµSD/SD memory cards.Switching maps.
The following map was created with MapSource CityNavigator Europe 2009 NT and shows the travelled path (track) of a trip fromHittnau ZH to Adelboden BE in Switzerland. A track consists of a number ofstraight lines called 'legs' at constant speed. The GPS creates a new leg eachtime the direction and/or speed changes. For each leg, the GPS records the dateand time, elevation, leg length, leg time, leg speed, leg course and thecurrent position (coordinates). With this information you know exactly when youwere where and with which speed you travelled in what direction. In thisexample, we used the WGS-84 datum and display the coordinates in degrees andminutes. MapSource supports many different datums and formats including theSwiss Grid CH-1903.Hint: Click on the images foran enlargement.7.2 Waypoints.
During vacation, the locations of the endpoints of all theski and chair lifts and some restaurants of the ski area of Savognin,Switzerland were stored on a GPS. Based on these waypoints, it was easy todetermine the current position in relation to the lifts at any time even if weused a Forerunner 305 which does not show maps. The image below wascreated using MapSource Swiss Topo V2. Note that in this example, thecoordinates are shown as 6 digit X and Y values corresponding to the Swiss Gridand the CH-1903 datum.7.3 Manual Routing.
