What is the difference between a stop and a via?
•
When routing in DeLorme Topo North America, you have the option of
adding/inserting stops or vias
want to stop and then proceed from. A via is a location on the map that you want the
route to use.
For example, if you create a route between Portland, Maine, and Yarmouth, Maine,
with no stops or vias, the route directions will tell you to take I-295. However, if you
want to take US Route 1 instead, you can place vias in the route on US Route 1 to
force the route to go by way of US Route 1. If you plan on stopping in Falmouth
Foreside for lunch, you will want your route directions to reflect that stop. When you
add a stop, you can recalculate to include it.
This map shows the area between Portland, Maine, and Yarmouth, Maine, with two
vias and one stop.
