Maps
● Map view — In the standard map view, details such as location names or
motorway numbers, are easy to read.
● Satellite view — For a detailed view, use satellite images.
● Terrain view — View at a glance the ground type, for example, when you are
travelling off-road.
● 3D view — For a more realistic view, change the perspective of the map.
● Landmarks — Display prominent buildings and attractions on the map.
● Night mode — Dim the colours of the map. When travelling at night, the map
is easier to read in this mode.
Download and update maps

Use the Nokia Ovi Suite application to download the latest maps and voice guidance
files to your compatible computer. To download and install Nokia Ovi Suite on your

About positioning methods
Maps displays your location on the map using GPS, A-GPS, or cell ID based
positioning.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system used for
calculating your location. Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is a network service that sends you
GPS data, improving the speed and accuracy of the positioning.
With cell ID based positioning, the position is determined through the antenna
tower your mobile device is currently connected to.
