Our visitor Andreas sent us a message, asking for the datum of the map where these waypoints were taken from, since this element is useful for use with the GPS We haven't mentioned the datum before, since, according to our sources, it is the default one, this is: Geodetic datum: WGS-84 (World Geodetic System of 1984) Coordinate system: geographic (longitude/latitude) Units of measure: decimal degrees Given the opportunity, though, we prepared a detailed list of waypoints for the total of Greek geographical names, with an index of abbreviations and symbols. Since the file is too large to get published, please take a look at the print-screen, and click to download in .pdf format. Don't forget to download also the help index!

The waypoints of mountains and peaks were found by Dimitris Stathakos, who also helped us have them from the URL http://164.214.2.59/gns/html/index.html. The pages are simple htm, weighing 194 Kb and 59 Kb respectively, in the form you see below: Waypoints of mountains Waypoints of peaks
