I did a quick search for averaging, but could not find that this is reported already.
What I have:
- Oregon 450 v4.47
- Basecamp 3.2.1
What I did:
- Created Waypoints in Basecamp
- Exported the Waypoints to my Oregon (to the SD Drive, not the internal one)
- Walked to all my Waypoints, placed them correctly and for some others which where OK I used the Averaging feature in my Oregon
- When I came back home, I started Basecamp and plugged in my Oregon
- Basecamp told me that the userdata.gpx on the SD drive of my Oregon is corrupt. I was not able to see any of my waypoints
I had a look at the GPX file and the only thing that my Oregon seems to have changed (apart from the Coordinates) is, that it added an additional Tag to save the # of "Averages" I did on my device for the particular Waypoint.
One of the Waypoints looked like this:
<wpt lat="47.123456" lon="9.123456">
<ele>600.235840</ele>
<time>2011-07-19T10:58:46Z</time>
<name>GC1SFinal</name>
<cmt>Testpoint</cmt>
<desc>Testpoint</desc>
<sym>Circle with X</sym>
<extensions>
<gpxx:WaypointExtension><gpxx:Samples>2</gpxx:Samples>
<gpxx:DisplayMode>SymbolAndName</gpxx:DisplayMode>
</gpxx:WaypointExtension>
</extensions>
</wpt>
Pay attention to the <gpxx:Samples> Tag here!
I altered the file and changed to waypoint to this:
<wpt lat="47.123456" lon="9.123456">
<ele>600.235840</ele>
<time>2011-07-19T10:58:46Z</time>
<name>GC1SFinal</name>
<cmt>Testpoint</cmt>
<desc>Testpoint</desc>
<sym>Circle with X</sym>
<extensions>
<gpxx:WaypointExtension><gpxx:DisplayMode>SymbolAndName</gpxx:DisplayMode>
</gpxx:WaypointExtension>
</extensions>
</wpt>
After that, Basecamp was able to read the userdata.gpx again and I was able to see the Waypoints in Basecamp again.
For me this looks like a Bug and I would be happy if this gets fixed in the next Version. On the other hand, if I´m doing something wrong here, please tell me.
