hi
I have a TT one new edition (12 months old) that will navigate using latitude & longitude but when camping in Europe a lot of sites use GPS coordinates is there a program I can add to my TT so I can use these European GPS coordinates. |

You could try using a program called POI Edit or an equivalent.
It lets you enter Lat / Long co-ordinates and creates a POI file that can be copied onto your TomTom as an "Overlay" (OV2 file)

That site only converts latitude and longitude between decimal degrees and degrees, minutes, and seconds.
THIS ONE does a lot more. 
But as Oldboy says, what coordinates are we talking about? |
