Section 6:
Searching
NOTE:
The Search function depends on the type of map data loaded in your
unit. GlobalMap HD models are fully "searchable" out of the box be-
cause they contain a hard drive loaded with complete mapping in-
formation. These maps include all the data contained in our Map-
Create custom maps, Fishing Hot Spots lake maps and NauticPath
coastal charts.
For all other units, the background map loaded in your unit's perma-
nent memory lets you search for some land features, including cities
and lakes. For a full set of searchable land features, including land-
marks, streets, addresses, highway exits and Points of Interest, you
must load your own high-detail custom map produced with our Map-
Create software. Or, you can use one of our plug and play map op-
tions such as FreedomMaps, Fishing HotSpots or NauticPath. For a
complete description of what detail is found in the background map
and custom MapCreate maps, see page 37.
The GlobalMap's variety of search functions all begin with either the
Find Waypoint menu or the Map Page menu. Press
WPT
and the Find
Waypoint menu appears for waypoints and Points of Interest (POI).
From the Map Page, press
MENU
and the Map Page menu appears for
streets, addresses and highway exits.
Find Waypoint menu (left) and Map Page menu (right).
NOTE:
You can search for items after the unit has acquired a position, or
while using it in the "indoor" simulator mode. Distance and bearing
to the selected item will be calculated from the GlobalMap's current
position or the last known position if operating indoors or without a
position determined. You can look up items by name, or search for
the item nearest to you.
