<br class="">
I have been watching YouTube and reading tutorials the whole afternoon, but I do not get this simple task done: <br class="">
<br class="">
I have a map with several layers in EPSG:2444. Now I create another vector layer with points, which represents points that I have to go myself and check for several features. I will go there with my Garmin Etrex 10 GPS. <br class="">
<br class="">
So, I would like to <br class="">
<br class="">
- add the coordinates of the certain points into the attribute table to print out the table later.<br class="">
- create a file with the coordinates in order to import it into the GPS device and walk along all points. <br class="">
<br class="">
My question: <br class="">
<br class="">
1. How do I get readable (GPS) coordinates into the attribute table (automatically, with field calculator or so)?<br class="">
2. Can I export a GPX file or so from these coordinates to import into a Garmin device (if so, how?)<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
It seems so basic, but I do not succeed. <br class="">
<br class="">
Best, <br class="">
Maria<br class="">
