plotting GPS Coordinates onto a map
Hi
I bought a Garmin eTrex handhelp GPS (old hillwalking type) as an emergency backup. (I haven't installed the european map set onto the garmin.)
Most of my planning and navigation will be from the Michelin motoring map.
Basically, I want to use the GPS coordinates to locate my position on a road map when I get hopelessly lost.
The michelin map doesn't use GPS coordinates. I know that there are complicated formulae for converting one system to another -even at this the michelin maps have their own reference system I guess.
So my question is whether there is a simple way to cross reference current GPS coordinates to plot them onto the michelin road map.
Wheeee!
