GPS Icons in ArcGIS Explorer | Feedback E-mail this topic Print this topic

If you've specified an icon name to indicate a waypoint while working with your GPS device, the table below indicates which ArcGIS Explorer symbol will display on the map. For example, if you specify "Marina" on your device, the "Sailing" icon will appear on the map. If you specify an icon name for which there is no equivalent among the ArcGIS Explorer symbol names, a "Yellow Flag" icon displays. The Category column indicates in which category the symbol appears in the Select Symbol panel.
