Anyone know how to do this?

Let's say I have a list of addresses, say 25 - 30 Dealers. Is there a program I can enter all of these addresses, have the program route the best way and then allow me export the route as a gpx file to import into my RoadTech?

I know I could enter them into a personal map one at a time or lay them out on a physical map and plan it myself but looking for something a little automated.

Can anyone help?

 

Why not just download the HD dealer list from the POI Factory? They get saved in the Favorites list in the GPS.
It doesn't do much good to export a pre-route, since you don't know what your location will be when you need a dealer. Just pull the dealer waypoint up when you need it and let the GPS calc the route when the time comes.

 

On my iPad, I found an app that can do several waypoints. InRoute. I know that won't help you if you have a GPS on your bike but it's the only option I have. Maybe you could use it as another option.

 

The only way I know of doing it is to set a starting point and then an ending point. Then add way points between the two. I don't know of any way to toss a bunch of coordinates into a pile and create a trip out of them.

 

Microsoft maps used to do exactly what you're looking for, but I don't know what export options were available. Might try to find a copy and try it.

 

Not sure if this will help you or not...I'm not really familiar with all this stuff so I don't know if it is really relevant or not...

What you are trying to do is pretty sophisticated.
Go here and ask:

These guys are masters at routing.
Rallies are about find the most efficient way to get to multiple points.

 

I use this link to make .gpx files from the gps data I get from motorcycle roads.us. It works well with my Road Tech 660.
