Hi,

I own a Gpsmap 60 cs, and Oziexplorer and I am looking for a software that
could extract or convert Gis data to output files to be read read by either
gps or Oziexplorer ( or any other common moving map software)
Many Thanks,

John

John,
I use ExpertGPS w/GIS option pack, but it's not free.
Alternativly, have a look at the programs listed on my Map Authoring
page under
http://www.travelbygps.com/authoring.php#gisdataview
I've not tried DigitalGrove's fGIS program, but thier home page states
that it allows you to:
"Use the MN DNR Garmin Tool for transferring shapefile waypoint and
track data to and from GPS units."
I hope this helps!

John-

OziExplorer can import .shp and .e00 files. Are you working with
another type? Once in Ozi, you can send them to your 60CS as tracks.
