Retrieve Position Information; Route Guidance; Trip Meter - Nokia N Series User Manual

The coordinates in the GPS are expressed in degrees and
decimal degrees format using the international WGS-84
coordinate system.
To use GPS data, the GPS receiver of your device must
receive position information from at least three satellites
to calculate the coordinates of your location.

Route guidance

To use route guidance, select Navigation. Start the route
guidance outdoors. If started indoors, the GPS receiver may
not receive the necessary information from the satellites.
Route guidance uses a rotating compass on the device
display. A red ball shows the direction to the destination,
and the approximate distance to it is shown inside the
compass ring.
Route guidance is designed to show the straightest route
and the shortest distance to the destination, measured in
a straight line. Any obstacles on the route, such as
buildings and natural obstacles, are ignored. Differences in
altitude are not taken into account when calculating the
distance. Route guidance is active only when you move.
To set your trip destination, select
destination and a landmark as the destination, or enter the
latitude and longitude coordinates. Select
to clear the destination set for your trip.
