18. Continuous Continental Navigation

You can seamlessly navigate between installed maps without the need for installing all maps en route. This is achieved by using a Basemap. A Basemap is a map of a large area, such as West Europe or the United States, containing main roads that connect cities and towns. You can select a road or POI on the Basemap as your start point or destination.

Basemaps:

contain roads and ferry connections of high national and international importance

use less memory than would be necessary to install all equivalent detailed maps

do not include smaller roads and have a reduced level of geographical detail.

You can add and remove Basemaps using the Basemap Installer.
