2D/3D GPS reception
The GPS receiver uses signals from satellites to calculate its current
position (the user's position), but to acquire a 3D position at least four
signals are necessary, including altitude. The GPS device may not be
able to acquire signals from four satellites as they are constantly moving
and obstacles may block satellite signals. Although the accuracy
decreases when only three signals can be acquired, and altitude data
cannot be sent, the receiver can calculate a latitude and longitude GPS
position. Only 2D reception is possible.
Route being navigated
The route currently being navigated. When a destination is set, the
route will be continuously navigated until the destination is deleted,
you arrive at the destination, or the software is closed. Also see “Route”.
City center
The center of the city/town is not the geographical center of the city/
town, but a location set by the cartographer. In towns and villages, this
is usually the most important intersection, while in larger cities it is
selected from multiple important intersections.
Color design
The color design used for the map and menu screens differs for daytime
and nighttime. Each design has a different graphic setting, with 2D and
3D each having colors for roads, blocks, seas, and lakes, whilst shadow
changes and shadows are displayed differently
