Export & routebook

GPX and KML export

On route maps, the download button at the bottom of the toolbar opens the export menu. KML (all POIs) and GPX (all POIs) contain the route, all POIs and the waypoints from your GPX file. KML (Favorites) and GPX (Favorites) contain the route and your favorites only. These two items show when the map has at least one favorite.

Use these files to load the route and its POIs into a GPS device, for example a Garmin, or into a different map app. Then you have all data available on the road, also without an internet connection. The markers keep their category colors.

Routebook

The book button in the toolbar opens the routebook. It is a list of all favorites on the route, ordered by route kilometer.

The top of the routebook shows the route name, the route length and the number of favorites. The buttons below filter the list by category. The number on each button tells you how many favorites are in that category.

For each favorite, the list shows:

  • the icon, the name and the type
  • the city
  • From start: the route kilometer from the start
  • To finish: the distance to the finish along the route
  • Beeline to route: the straight distance from the route, with an arrow that shows the direction from the route to the POI

Click From start in the table header to reverse the order. Click the name of a favorite to open the map at that favorite, with its popup open. On a computer, the list is a table. On a phone, each favorite is a card.

A line below the list gives OpenStreetMap as the data source. Show map opens the map again. Print (A4) prints the routebook on A4 paper in portrait format. The printed page also shows the date.

Note

The routebook needs at least one favorite. If the map has no favorites, the routebook button tells you to add some first.
