VantagePoint
PC Application Software
for Magellan
®
Triton
GPS
Overview
Magellan® VantagePoint™ is a powerful software application that enables users to view maps,
Points of Interests (POIs), and customize their user-created data on a PC. You can create waypoints
and geocaches, load
maps, POIs, waypoints, geocaches, routes, tracks, add photo and audio
recordings of your journeys and view all data on the map in VantagePoint. VantagePoint allows users
to search for POIs and user-created data on your map to help plan a trip. The Route Planning feature
helps map an upcoming hike, geocaching trip or other adventure, while the Track Analysis tool can
playback the user’s experiences on the trip to share with others. VantagePoint will also remind you of
available new software for VantagePoint itself or Triton when it is available online for you to
download*. The
Library Function helps to organize and store all of your content including Maps, Journal
(user generated data), and Media. Then VantagePoint can synchronize your user-generated content
with your Triton GPS or transfer your maps to Triton GPS.
