Overview
A code is a description which can be stored with a point, line, area or alone.
Coding on GPS1200+ is very flexible with thematical, free and quick coding being available.
Thematical and free coding is possible by selecting codes from a codelist or by directly typing
in codes. SmartCodes are a quick way for a code to be stored with a point to be selected and
to be measured.
For coding, points, lines and areas have the same behaviour. In this chapter, the word object
is used as a generic term for points, lines and areas.
