Mapping Detail: There's more here than meets the eye.

The Custom Map Files you make with MapCreate contain more mapping detail than what is visible on your computer screen. Your MapCreate 6- compatible GPS unit takes full advantage of this extra information.

Find Highway Exit Services

For example, move your mouse pointer over a highway exit symbol on the computer map, and all you'll see is a pop-up tool-tip box listing the name of the exit. However, in a Lowrance or Eagle GPS unit, the same exit symbol will show a pop-up box with the exit name and symbols of all the services available near that exit. The GPS unit can also provide you a list of those services.

Find Points of Interest

On the computer master map, moving your pointer over a Point of Interest (POI) symbol triggers a pop-up box with the POI's name. In a Lowrance or Eagle GPS, you'll be shown the POI's address and phone number as well.
