Routes
route is a series of waypoints, linked together in an ordered sequence
to mark a course of travel. You can visualize a route as a string o
beads. The beads represent waypoints and the string represents the
course of travel connecting waypoint to waypoint.
The course from one waypoint to the next is a leg. Routes are compose
of one or more legs. The legs of all GPS routes are based on straight
lines between waypoints.
route provides the automatic capability to navigate through several
waypoints without having to reprogram the unit after arriving at each
waypoint. Once programmed into the GPS unit, a route gives users the
option of navigating forward through the route waypoints or in reverse
order. You can even begin navigating in the middle of a route!
