Hi All,
Just a general question about user
treks downloading.
I've downloaded the Old Coach Road trek from
Maytown to
Laura Qld.
The info page for this shows 2830 points but when I download in gpx, plt or csv I only get 88 points.
Yet when I download the
Bathurst bay to Elim Beach I get 249 points whereas the page shows 248 points. An extra point at the end is added which is at Lat 0.0 Long 0.0 (this is also in the Old Coach Road gpx and plt files).
Now it gives a general indication of where the track goes but along this track when you put it into Google Earth or similar and overlay it on aerial imagery there are some areas where it would be possible to take different routes between two of the points.
It would be nice to have the option to download all the points or at least increase the number to where it gives a greater definition to the track.
Anyway just an observation, I'd sort of expect at least 300 points for a more accurate display when there is 2830 points in the description and the file could be zipped if it's a matter of bandwidth.
Cheers
Ross
