Michael, What about a route? String 100m lines together in a route, You even can tell the GPS when to notify you about the coming of a node which will be the beginning of a new line. Because it's nearly impossible to hit a 1X1m square with the GPS, (it will constantly move on you) I use this feature to let me know when I'm let's say 10 m from the point and then use a fixed amount of paces and the bearing to be fairly unbiased in locating the point.

How can I split straight polylines with a node every 100m, but keep the same line? Obviously I can create points every 100m using the GRASS toolbox, but these are then converted to a waypoint when saved as gpx. If I save the two node lines then the GPS wont indicate when I've reached the next survey point... Any help gladly appreciated! Michael
