MapCreate converts the green trail line into a magenta route line with
red waypoints. It does this by transforming thousands of position points
in the trail to 25 route waypoints. See the illustration below, showing
the trail and route before and after the command is performed.
Trail segment through Joplin before conversion to a route (left) and
the route created automatically from the trail (right). In the right
image, the green trail and the magenta route are both visible. Note the
numbered waypoints appearing along the route.
