How do I create a POI from an address?

 

I have several addresses I would like to load into my Garmin 370 as POIs. How do I do that? Can I input the addresses into Google Earth and then copy the coordinates into the Garmin somehow.

Mapsource

Yes, you can manually enter coordinates.

However, the easiest method is to use Mapsource from Garmin. If you search this forum you will find links to the program.

If you plan to create a lot of POIs, I would strongly suggest purchasing GeePeeEx. It is a program developed by a member of this forum and is VERY useful.

Multiple external sources

Go to the FAQ's at http://www.poi-factory.com/node/821 which describe the different sources and how to load them.
