What is the difference between mapsource and basecamp




















So, I have several questions; 1. Should I attempt to install MapSource on my Win 10 laptop? Thanks in advance for any help here. You should be able to keep using it. You can load both and use both. Map source is no longer supported BaseCamp has better graphics You can export all of you data from Mapsource in the form of a gpx or a gdb file and import into BaseCamp. I make an alloetit caarte for test.

The transfer is done normally and I see a file gmapsupp. If I send map with or Mapsource 6. Could you help me? It just shows direct lines, not on roads or paths and these occur on the dark areas of the map. Any ideas how to fix this? You need to drag over the full area that you want to send. The routes need to be planned with exactly the same map as on the device also same date — so I think it will solve itself once correctly sent make sure not to set via points too far from each other.

Ich habe BaseCamp Version 4. Es gelingt mir nicht. Kann mir jemand helfen. Vielen Dank! Du kannst MapInstall auch einfach separat aufrufen.

Du kannst alle. Es fehlen genau die — welche mit Basecamp 4. Konnte laut Mapinstall die Karten erfolgreich installieren, das Garmin als auch Bootcamp und GarminExpress erkennen die Karte jedoch nicht.

Danke vorab Andreas. Hello, I have downloaded the us-west map in base camp. I am now trying to install the maps on a memory card and then use that in my my eTrex touch 35t. I have a windows computer and if I install it into the card reader on the computer nothing comes up in Basecamp that allows me to select the maps to be installed there. I know I must be missing something just not sure what. Please help! You must be logged in to post a comment.

Or can I do everything with Basecamp only? You can do everything from either product. Mapsource comes with map packs you buy from Garmin while Basecamp if free and available to anyone without purchasing anything else first. Sort of. If I remember correctly, you can't install maps to a GPS unit using Basecamp, but it comes with a separate program, MapIstall, that you can use for that purpose.

Been a while since i used basecamp. Ever since i got mapsource its what i've been using. It seems a bit easier to use for managing your maps. I do not post much here but read everyone elses opinion but on this one I have to speak up. Mapsource seems to be very intuitive as compared to Basecamp. I used Mspsource for a long time, loaded basecamp and tried it. Great program but way more than I need and bulkier than mapsource. I wonder how many resources Garmin has dedicated to the project.

Whatever it is, it appears to be inadequate. I remember that when Basecamp was first introduced, a stated goal was to "dumb down" Mapsource, but istead its evolved into a non-intuitive and difficult to use beast. I suspect that the majority of GPS users never set up their own preferred routing and strictly rely on the GPS to do it automatically, so don't have a need for such programs.

I'd wish garmin would consider keeping it I notice that there are some file types which mapsource can open which basecamp can't which means I have to run both. Basecamp grows on me as I use it more, you're probably like me I hate change. Oh yea, what can you do?

I am trying and trying to figure it out. I can create a route and port it to my GPS now. It isn't easy. I put it on my Nuvi used on my motorcycle. What will this do for me? Do I need to turn something on? I admit, I am ignorant at this point. The first thing you should do is a backup of your unit.

There are several excellent guides by Charlesd45 and jgermann detailing the steps. As to the Rest Area file, you need to do a couple of things. You will need to check the 's settings to be certain alerts for custom POI is enabled under tools and settings. Then, running POILoader you will need to select the manual mode and enter a distance for the alert. Yesterday i downloaded both basecamp and mapsource and i have to make a decision of what i should learn and use. I belive i will go for Basecamp, even if it has a lerning curve that my be a pain Maybe it is old news but i had no problems to get mapsource, i just had to download something called Training center and then go for mapsource.

Yea, I've been avoiding Basecamp, it seems for years. Too many years with Mapsource, which I love, to now being somewhat forced into using Basecamp. I use both Mapsource and Basecamp for much of my work. Although Basecamp will do almost all of what Mapsource will do, Mapsource is faster at some tasks.

One of the best I've seen. I believe Norwood had a series of tutorials available on YouTube before Garmin published the bulk of theirs. The Garmin tutorials are excellent at showing features but not necessarily explaining what they do though. Ed Conte is not a representative of Garmin, and his tutorial is based on practical routing and uses for a motorcyclist.

It's more advanced than most automotive drivers need, but it exploits the best features, and takes about a day to get through. Log In Sign Up. Home » Garmin talk.
