If your personal note of a cache contains valid coordinates (e.g. N50 10.123 E010 34.876
) c:geo will automatically create a waypoint from it in the waypoint tab of this cache.
If for example this is the content of your personal note:
c:geo will automatically create this waypoint for it:
Subsequent coordinates in your personal note will also be transferred to a waypoint in the same way and the waypoint name numbered accordingly.
If the waypoints of a cache already contain the same coordinates as found in your personal note, c:geo will not create a new waypoint for these coordinates as it assumes them to be an unnecessary duplicate in this case.
Normally c:geo will define the waypoint type for coordinates found in the personal note as Reference Point
, however you can use keywords in your personal note to enforce another waypoint type being used.
You just place one of the following keywords in front of the coordinates:
Icon | Waypoint type | Keyword in personal note | ShortId in personal note |
---|---|---|---|
Parking Area | PARKING | P | |
Question to Answer | PUZZLE | X | |
Stage of a Multi cache | STAGE | S | |
Trailhead | TRAILHEAD | T | |
Reference Point | WAYPOINT | W | |
Final Location | FINAL | F |
c:geo will recognize the following keyword formats as waypoint type identifiers:
Additionally localized waypoint type names (in the language you are using c:geo) will also work, however as c:geo is available in many languages we only list the English keywords here.
In our example we created the following personal note:
which then automatically creates these waypoints for you:
