Map Scale

A map scale appears on the lower left of the Map page.

It shows you the current zoom level showing on the Map

page (such as 500 miles, .8 miles, or 200 feet) as well as

what map your StreetPilot is using to create the current

image. Your StreetPilot includes a “ base map” and a “ detail

map.” The base map provides only general information such

as city names and highway exits. The detail map includes

speciﬁ c details such as businesses, parks, and other points

of interest. Thus, if you are viewing Denver at a map scale

of 800 feet, your StreetPilot will display information from

its base map. The map scale will switch from “base map” to

“detail map” as you continue to zoom in to Denver.

If you continue to zoom in to Denver or any city,

“overzoom” will appear on the map scale. Displaying at

around 500 - 300 feet, “overzoom” indicates that the cur-

rent scale exceeds the optimum resolution of available map

detail. Some detail, such as roads, are drawn using widely-

spaced points and the actual layout of these details may

differ from the map presentation.
