User Waypoint Information

points. Once a user waypoint is created, two user waypoint pages will display the fol-
lowing information:
• Waypoint identifier
• Position in latitude and longitude
• Identifier, range and bearing from a reference waypoint
• User comments
To scroll between the user waypoint position page and the user comments page,
