We support the Garmin InReach for GPS tracking.
The GPS tracking with the Garmin InReach requires an active PredictWind Forecast account on any PredictWind Subscription level (Free, Basic, Standard or Professional). Set up a PredictWind Forecast account here.
To setup GPS tracking with the Garmin InReach we will need the following:
Your Garmin MapShare feeds URL
Your Boat’s Name
Ensure that the feed URL does not have a password enabled as PredictWind does not support password-protected feeds.
Please follow this process to get your personal MapShare feeds URL:
Login to garmin at https://inreach.garmin.com/en-US/Account/LogOn?&stage=2
Once logged in, go to the Social or Mapshare Tab
Check that MapShare is turned ON; If Mapshare is turned off, click the “MapShare OFF” button.
With MapShare ON, look and click on the 'feeds' link
Send to us by InApp message or contact PredictWind Support with the URL under 'Raw KML Data' It will look like this:
Please ensure that the URL is accurate and does not have a password restriction as this could prevent integration.
