Waypoints in Portugal

Information in these files was taken (July 2001) from www.calle.com and apparently derives from the GEOnet Names Server of the USA NIMA. The points are regularly spaced and most of them have names that belong to villages or towns at some distance from them.

Of the more than 18000 points for Portugal, only about 12000 were in fact distinct. Information on points that were found coincident was merged and kept as a single waypoint; different place names were put in the remark field and unique names following the old Garmin conventions (at most 6 characters in upper-case letters, digits and minus sign) were generated. Groups with the resulting waypoints were then created: one group for each "concelho" with all waypoints within a quadrangle of 20 minutes of latitude by 20 minutes of longitude centred in the "concelho" head town. Each file contains one group and its waypoints.

Most of this work was done using GPSMan or special programs using part of its code.
