Data Download
Step 2: Choose a Data Selection Method
After you specify a location where the data will be stored, you will be prompted
to select a region on the map to download. CoPilot allows you to download
data using one of the three methods described below.
See Data Download Step 3 beginning on p. 17 for step-by-step instructions.
City Radius - This method allows you to quickly select data in the shape of a
circle surrounding any city on the map. In the Data Download Wizard you type a
city name and country abbreviation or postal code and enter the number of kilo-
meters you would like the radius to extend around the city, then click Next.
The Wizard displays a map that shows
the city and the radius you chose. At
this point you can zoom the map in and
out using zoom buttons and adjust the
size of the data area by altering the
radius of the circle.
Map Area - This method of selecting data allows you to choose an area of data
by drawing a box on the Data Download Wizard's map screen.
In the Wizard, you enter a city name near
which you would like to select data, then
click Next. The map will zoom to that
location. Then you create a box around
the desired area by clicking and dragging
your mouse across the map. The street-
level data within that box will be selected.
You can zoom the map in and out using
the zoom buttons and adjust the size of
the data area by redrawing the box.
Trip - The Trip method of selecting data is by far the most customizable method.
This option allows you to run a trip and select street-level data specific to that trip,
thereby avoiding unneeded data and saving valuable memory space.
Once the trip is run, the Data Download Wizard automatically selects circles of data
around your origin and destination, and a corridor of data along your route. You can
then click Options to adjust the radius of
the circles and the width of the corridor.
The Trip Itinerary for each trip you down-
load will be stored on your Pocket PC
(see Trip Transfer, p. 24). Multiple trips can be
downloaded to the Pocket PC for later use.
Region - This method lets you
download map data for a whole
country or region. The region you
select must be included in the region
that was installed on your Pocket PC,
otherwise a warning will appear and
you won’t be able to download data.
Region downloads generally take the
longest amount of time, depending
on the size of the selected region.
