How to Add Coordinates on a Magellan SporTrak GPS Map
Waypoints are visual map markers that plot defined coordinates--they plot the elevation, longitude and latitude. GPS systems use waypoints to route users to a destination or to mark places they've already been. And if you need to set the coordinates of a location on your handheld Magellan SporTrak Map GPS unit, all you need to do is set up a new waypoint to plot your coordinate.
