Hello -

This may seem like an academic answer, but could you simply use the real time GPS tracking option on google earth?  Seems like that would work, maybe have to refresh it by going on line periodically since your trip is so far, but maybe that'll work.

yes, I've named it 12311971.img

Well, I got to an img file, but now I can't get MapSetTooKit to see it - any ideas?

Yes, this is where the shapefile I'm refering to is located -  http://www.nysgis.state.ny.us/gisdata/inventories/

I'll try reshaping to geo/wgs84 right now, thanks - I'll also try MapWindow if that diesn't work - thanks again

Hello -

I'm new here, and new at map making - I have a question - forgive me if it's remedial - but it's got me stumped -

I've downloaded a shape file from the New York State Dept Env Conservation - it's essentially a big polygon shaded to show public lands in NY - my plan is to make it transparent and load it to my GPS (Garmin GPS60CSX) with the NY topo - when I use GPSMapEdit, save it as a Polish format, then try and export it as a .img file - here's what I get

"INPUT data Error - E017 - Cannot parse coordinates"

Any ideas?

Thanks - kpd
