Maps

This section includes basic information that you need to know about the map database.

The maps are stored on a DVD. The United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico are contained on one disc.

Detailed Areas

Road network attributes are contained in the map database for detailed areas. Attributes include information such as street names, street address, turn restrictions, etc. A detailed area includes all major highways, service roads, and residential roads. The detailed areas include points of interest (POI) such as: restaurants, airports, banks, hospitals, police stations, gas stations, tourist attractions, historical monuments, etc. The map database may not include data for newly constructed areas or map database corrections that are completed after the production of the disc. The navigation system provides full route guidance in the detailed map areas.

Limited Guidance Areas

Any area that is not classified as detailed, is a limited guidance area. Limited guidance streets are displayed on the map but route guidance may not be given

on these streets. Some POI categories, such as the city center POI category, and some street addresses are included in the limited guidance areas.
