Waypoints

A waypoint is an electronic address, based on the latitude and longi-
tude of a position on the earth. It represents a location, spot, or destina-
tion that can be stored in memory, then recalled and used later for
navigation purposes. You can create a waypoint at the cursor position
on the map or at your current position while you are navigating.
