Government used to calculate the coordinate position on the earth's surface.
Q: What is routing?
A: Routing is the calculation of a driving route from a start point to a destination.
Q: What is navigation?
A: Navigation is the turn-by-turn directions for assisting you through the driving route that has been
calculated to your destination.
Q: What is voice-enabled output (direction)?
A: Voice enabled output is the verbal directions for you to drive. Example: Turn Left in 1000 feet.
Q: How accurate is GPS?
A: GPS accuracy is dependent on the hardware you've purchased. Typically, GPS provide position accurate
to 30 or 10 meters depending on your GPS receiver.
Q: Do I have to pay a monthly fee for the services?
A: No. There are no fees to use GPS.
Q: Will it work indoors?

Q: Can someone track me with it?
A: No. People cannot track your movements. However, if you record a track, the track file will indicate

A: The maps cover most areas of the United States.
Q: How much extra memory do I need?
A: Memory requirement depends on how much maps data you want to load on your handheld. Typically, a

Q: Does it work with my Palm device?
A: No. This software runs on most Pocket PC operation system devices.
Q: Can I use this software with my old GPS receiver?
A: No. This software is intended for use with the bundled hardware. No other GPS receivers are
supported.
Q: Will it work in another country? Canada, Mexico, Japan, England?
A: While GPS can provide positional coordinate for the earth's surface as long as the receiver has a clear
view of the sky (and the GPS satellites). However, maps, navigation and routing are only provided in
United States and within the map coverage areas.
