Large airports are those with a runway longer than 8000’. Medium Airports are those
with a runway longer than 5000’ or with a control tower. Large cities are those with
approximate populations greater than 200,000 and medium cities are those with
approximate populations over 50,000. Small towns have approximate populations
under 5,000 or an unknown population size.

’MAP’ is the first of 14 file tabs. The settings under this tab
allow you to adjust map detail (scale dependent); map
orientation (North Up, Track Up, etc.); Color Mode (Day or
Night); or AutoZoom.

The ‘DATA’ file tab provides one-step ON/OFF selections for
land data and aviation data. When using the GPSMAP 295
in an automobile, you may wish to turn all the aviation
data—airports, navaids, airspaces—off.
