MapCreate converts the green trail line into a magenta route line with red waypoints. It does this by transforming thousands of position points in the trail to 25 route waypoints. See the illustration below, showing the trail and route before and after the command is performed.
Trail segment through Joplin before conversion to a route (left) and the route created automatically from the trail (right). In the right image, the green trail and the magenta route are both visible. Note the numbered waypoints appearing along the route.
You can save this as a GPS Data File. (Click the SAVE GPS DATA FILE button.)
