          defining the route you want to pass while traveling,
          created by PC software, or generated inside a GPS device.
          They can be composed of existing waypoints, or new

          device while traveling -- "breadcrumb trails". The order
          of trackpoints within the track is important. Usually a
          trackpoint doesn't have a name or comment, but a
          timestamp. This distinguishes a trackpoint from a
          waypoint.</p></dd></dl></div><div class="glossdiv"><h3 class="title">W</h3><dl><dt><a id="gl_waypoint"></a><span class="glossterm">Waypoints</span></dt><dd class="glossdef"><p>are geopoints that are not necessarily connected to
          other points, and their order is unimportant. They can be
          entered before, while or after you actually visit the
          place and might have tags like name, comment and the
          like. Usually used to mark special locations as your
          home, a hotel or a geocache.</p></dd></dl></div></div><div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="navfooter"><hr /><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="style_notes.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"> </td><td width="40%" align="right"> </td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Miscellaneous Notes </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> </td></tr></table></div>
