■ GPS data
GPS data is designed to provide route guidance information to a selected
destination, position information about your location, and travelling information,
such as the approximate distance and travel time to the destination.
Route guidance
Start the route guidance outdoors. Select > Applications > Location > GPS
data > Navigation.
Route guidance shows 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 Options > Set destination and a landmark as
the destination, or enter the latitude and longitude coordinates. To clear the
destination, select Stop navigation.
