iv WARNING! A CAREFUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD TO OBTAIN POSITION INFORMATION. CAUTION When showing navigation data to a position (waypoint), a GPS unit will show the shortest, most direct path to the waypoint. It provides navigation data to the waypoint regardless of obstructions. Therefore, the prudent navigator will not only tak[...]

1 Section 1: Introduction How this manual can get you into the field, fast! Thanks for buying MapCreate  , the custom mapping software for Lowrance and Eagle GPS units. This manual was written using Map- Create  U.S.A. and MapCreate  Canada versions 6.3. Beginning with version 6.3, all MapCreate packages work identically, but contain dif- [...]

Let's use the figure above as an example. If we name our map " Phoenix.lcm ,&qu[...]

6 How MapCreate Works: the Basics You'll be making maps faster if you understand the hoops MapCreate must jump through to cram a high-detail map into your GPS unit. First of all, those CDs you just purchased contain a whole bunch of raw digital cartography data. There are several hundred files of digital map- ping information containing lake s[...]

8 hard drive space is available, many users like to archive Map Files in the C:Program FilesLEIMapCreateData folder. This allows you to change maps on your card and reuse a map over and over without creating it each time. If you save a map to the Data folder, MapCreate will remember that location the next time you save a map, during the current[...]

9 To help you decide what size cards to buy, make some map borders cov- ering the type of travel you expect. Then use the Estimate Custom Map Size command to calculate the size. For example, one Missouri customer frequently travels and fishes in the four-state area of Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas and Oklahoma. He purchased an additional 128MB MMC, wh[...]
