- A running tally of distance traveled, based upon the dis-
tance between second-by-second position readings. Both the 'Odome-
ter' and the 'Trip Odometer' are resettable, however the "odometer' is
typically used to keep track of total distance covered, where the 'Trip
Odometer' is used to keep track of Point-to-point distances.
- The distance you are off a desired course in either direc-
tion, left or right. Also referred to as 'cross-track error' or 'course error'.
- Reference Waypoint. Used to create a new waypoint, by specifying
a bearing and distance from an existing (reference) waypoint.
- The current velocity at which you are traveling, relative to a
ground position. Also referred to as 'ground speed'.
- The estimated time required to reach a GOTO destination, or
the next waypoint in a route. Also referred to as 'estimated time
