Garmin GPSMAP 130 Owner's Manual And Reference Manual page 17

The GPSMAP 130' s map page combines digital chartplotting with a user-selec-
table display of navigation data and a built-in worldwide database to 64 nm. It
will also be the page you use most to create and edit waypoints and routes. Before
we take off on our practice route, let' s take a brief look at its various features and
displays.
Boat
Icon
The map display, located in the middle of the page, shows your boat as a tri-
angle marker on an electronically generated chart, along with geographic names,
markers and buoys that are provided by the G-chart cartridge you're currently
using. It also displays your track, routes and nearby waypoints. An on-screen
cursor lets you pan to other map areas, determine the range and bearing to a
position, and perform various waypoint and route functions.
The data window, located at the top of the page, provides a user-selectable
display of various navigation data, including course, speed over ground, and the
bearing and distance to the cursor or a particular waypoint. The status bar, located
at the bottom of the page, displays the current map scale setting, as well as the sta-
tus information described on page 17.
