I have a Nav 5 which I mainly use for navigation from A to B which works great. I recently started using Basecamp for more specific routes into my Nav 5, again great tool. My confusion began when researching various forums regarding going 'off route' due to diversions or just my desire to do so but then get back on the original inputted route. The terminology used is 'Waypoints' 'Via points' and 'Shaping points' It appears to me other forums also confuse the 3 different terms when providing their advice. So far I am happy using 'Waypoints' as main stops, and 'Shaping points' (either alert or not) to shape the route, all good. My confusion is when the term 'Via points' are used, it appears this term is used to describe both functionalities, or am I missing something obvious?
