Marking a Hazard

The map object Hazard allows you to mark a hazard at the vehicle location. The map object Hazard can be used later
in Hazard Detection, in Chapter 3 "Guidance Hazard Detection", to notify the operator of potentially hazardous
objects or features with in the field. Hazard detection will not work with point objects. A hazard button will be in the
view page button bar, see Figure 5-21 (left side). To map a hazard drive to the location of the object or feature you
want to map, this location should coincide with the location of your GPS antenna. Next, highlight the Hazard button
in the button bar using the keys then press. The Hazard Name dialog box will appear, see Figure 5-21 (right side),
enter the name of the hazard using the keys. Press the enter button to accept the hazard name and return to the real-
time view page, Figure 5-21.

Figure 5-22 shows a mapped hazard with the tag showing the hazard name RISER. Use the information button.
