TourPoint Editor is specifically designed to produce and edit GPX files destined for Garmin's® Automotive Satnav (GPSr) systems. It is envisaged that such files will be used as input to Garmin's® POI Loader and then turned into Custom POI's (Points of Interest).

Features:
  • Direct, form-based data entry for ALL accessible fields within a Garmin® GPX file - not just the subset that other programs provide access to. This includes the Phone-number fields, so that for units with Bluetooth support, you will be able to dial in exactly the same way as you do for POI's that are built-in to the map.
  • Applies fixes and workarounds for Garmin® Streetpilots®, Zümos™ and Nüvis®, so that your .gpx files display the way you expect them to.
  • Produce detailed, informative, POI entries with images (and sound) - not just lists of locations.  Up to 5000 characters (approx) can be displayed. These descriptions can include basic <html> markup for professional looking results.
  • Convert CSV files to GPX. Optionally and uniquely, TourPoint Editor will search for valid telephone numbers in CSV files(column 4 data) and will place these in the correct GPX field to allow auto-dialling!! Multi-column csv files are now supported, with pre-defined field mapping for Outlook and Outlook Express.
  • Use Google Earth™ to prepare your POI's and import straight into TourPoint Editor. Download and import existing POI collections. View your own POI's and their associated images in Google Earth™ with a single keypress.
  • Display individual POI's on an integral Google Map™. You can make manual adjustments using the map and update your POI entry at the click of a button.
  • Built-in "Geocoding" (with batch-mode), using Yahoo!® Web Services.
  • 'Auto-enhancement Detection' eases the creation of complex POI's that utilise Images, Sound and Custom Icon.
  • 'Preview' mode shows how your POI's will display on the selected device.
  • Merge multiple input files into one output file. Selectively write records to a new output file.
  • Re-format 3rd party GPX files so that Garmin's® Mapsource® and POI Loader programs can read them. 
  • Automatically decodes and translates 'Route Point' entries into 'WayPoints'.
  • Automatic 'relative-link' creation for ease of portability.

** Now supports Garmin's POILoader V2.5.2 **
