Garmin 405 data used for geotagging? Can GPX data be extracted for geotagging by using software such as: GPS Photo Linker?

You can use it - I use my Garmin Edge 305 for Geotagging photos. Make sure you sync the clock of the camera and the GPS though first - makes life easier. You'll need to export them as GPX and use a program like Geosetter (for Windows) or HoudahGeo for Mac to sync the two together.

I've used many gpx files from RideWithGPS with no problem. I would assume a similar export from MapMyRide would work also.

Yes, if you can see the GPS data on the photos in your camera, they are tagged and will show up in iPhoto as mine did.

I have not used this with Garmin products. I have used it with the iPhone and iPad and it worked fine with both of those. If your device will run Garmin software and maps, then I would think this would supply the GPS location to the device which the Garmin software could use properly. I think the question is whether it will work with your device or not.

I don't own this series, but since no one has answered your question, I'll try.The Topo maps appear when using 2D mode, not 3D (AFAIK). As far as photos (I've never used this feature on my Garmin), but I suspect you can take any picture you want and load it on your Garmin (just make sure they are small in size). Photo navigation I also haven't used. Check the Garmin manual (on line manual) for more info on this.

Yes, the USB connection allows this. The files, including tracks show up as folders. Garmin ha software for your computer which can project tracks onto a map.

i dont know but with my old GPS II+ works perfectly!, i just installed the driver USB to serial contained in cd. Set the Interface GPS Garmin II+ to GRMN/GRMN. In my case i used Mapsource & all is ok.

I'm sorry, I don't know. I did not need the drivers, the drivers are probably installed with Map Source. The USB cable creates a com port used for the GARMIN data transfer.

I emailed National Geographic and they indicated that their Topo Software in it's current version will work with this Garmin unit. I ordered it and am waiting for delivery. I doubt Garmin is embedding code to stop 3rd party software from working. They probably have a new format and older versions of Topo Software are not suitable.

According the Owner's Manual, page 16: The device supports the following file types: Maps and GPX waypoint files from MapSource (See page 24) GPI custom POI files from Garmin POI loader (see page 24) It also says you need the add-on memory chip to load these, as the internal memory is filled up with the Nuvi road database.

I don't see any reference to GPS in the instruction manual or about GEO tagging

Yes, just put the micro-sd card into your Garmin SD slot, and it will automatically read the card when you put in an Aussie or NZ address. I put the address' in ahead of time by going to Google Earth, then finding what I was looking for. Then entering the Coordinates and "Save As" what ever, like hotel name, etc.

Do you mean gps? There's an option to export the data from the garmin connect page.

Yes, insofar as the module you desire to use can do standard serial data. There are tons of pre-made "capes" for either/both of these functions but if you are rolling your own, NEMA GPS is 4800 and GPRS is 115000 .. and these are well within the capabilities of the on-board UARTs.

Yes, I interfaced the unit with OPEN/CPN (OpenCPN | Official OpenCPN Homepage). You also can get CPN from (Active captain.com) I just did a 63 NM trip and it was afreefffantastic. Gives more dat then my Garmin. You can download updated free charts from NOA and charts all over the world. I planned my trip on OpenCPN and the GPS monitored my track. Best $40 spent

Pretty much any of the Garmin hand held units will do that, even the older, discontinued models. When you say "GPS coordinates" there are several standards, inlcuding lat/long, UTM and MGRS. GPS Made Easy (GPS Made Easy: Using Global Positioning Systems in the Outdoors) is a pretty good book that covers all the basics.

I can't tell you for sure, but if your GPS does not have a place to insert an SD chip or a micro-SD chip, then clearly it won't work, because that's how these maps are delivered. Also, it would have to be compatible with Garmin maps, and again, I have no idea.
