Overview

Magellan® VantagePoint™ is a powerful software application that enables users to view maps, Points of Interests (POIs), and customize their user-created data on a PC. You can create waypoints and geocaches, load maps, POIs, waypoints, geocaches, routes, tracks, add photo and audio

recordings of your journeys and view all data on the map in VantagePoint. VantagePoint allows users to search for POIs and user-created data on your map to help plan a trip. The Route Planning feature helps map an upcoming hike, geocaching trip or other adventure, while the Track Analysis tool can playback the user’s experiences on the trip to share with others. VantagePoint will also remind you of available new software for VantagePoint itself or Triton when it is available online for you to download*.
