Navigation System Operations

Introduction to Navigation Software

Navigation software provides turn-by-turn
visual and voice assistance to direct you to
selected destination. The software quickly
calculates step-by-step directions to any
destination available on the included
navigation map. The navigation software uses
Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites, and
a digital roadway map database to calculate
and display travel directions. The system's GPS
antenna receives signals from a constellation
of 24 satellites orbiting the earth and uses the
strongest of signals, to determine your position
to within meters.
Vehicle Position
The navigation software's computer considers
vehicle speed and heading changes, together
with longitude and latitude information, to
accurately determine vehicle heading and
position on a digital map. Signals from GPS
satellites are used to determine the vehicle
location. Three (good) or four (best) satellites
must be received to accurately determine
location. The GPS reception status is indicated
by the GPS symbol on the map.
Map and Information Database
The map database used by navigation software
was created using high-resolution aerial and
land based data collection. Car navigation maps
are frequently updated. While the database was
judged to be as accurate as possible at the
time of its release, a map database can never
be 100% accurate. Road information that is
maintained in the map databases, such as turn
restrictions or road names may change over
time.
