User manual EAGLE MAPCREATE USA 6.3 TOPO ADDENDUM

[. . . ] Material covered in this addendum includes: New Mapping Data Addendum I For · Topographic elevations, public hunting areas and game management units are discussed along with other new data on page 3. Be sure to read the map data disclaimer following the data descriptions. New hunting-specific symbols make it easier to scout ahead of the hunt and mark important spots. MapCreate Topo lets you search for POIs, land features and more, just as you can in a Lowrance GPS unit. [. . . ] This makes it easier to determine what USGS topo maps you may want to purchase for your outdoor adventures. Sections, township and range lines are included. Boundaries have also been added for cities over 2, 500 population. Important Notice Do not rely on this product as your primary source of information for navigation or area boundaries. You are responsible for using official government maps and charts during your outdoor activities. Due to the varied ownership and fluctuating borders of publicly managed hunting lands and game management units, you should also consult boundary signs and other on-site identifiers when using those areas. Activities on public hunting lands are carefully managed to ensure the future of game and non-game species. You must consult local wildlife agency regulations for the hunting areas you use. The Lowrance web site, www. lowrance. com, contains links to the web sites of all state and Canadian provincial wildlife agencies to help access both hunting regulations and official mapping information. Also, updates to MapCreate's mapping data are ongoing; MapCreate Hunting Topo customers may download regional updates of hunting-related data categories from the Lowrance web site.

Hunting Specific Symbols MapCreate has a basic set of 42 symbols used to represent waypoints 4 or event marker icons. That set contains several hunting symbols ­ such as deer track and tree stand ­ but we have added more than a dozen new ones. Now you can use a specific symbol to mark items ranging from turkeys to ATVs and from food plots to buck rubs Searching One of the most powerful new functions in MapCreate Topo is the ability to search for POIs and several types of land features. To launch the command, click the FIND button on the Map Navigation toolbar (it looks like a binocular). The Find Menu appears, with a dialog box for the item's name, and pull down menus for the major category and minor category to search in. For nearest searches, MapCreate begins looking from the current center of the map. When you select an item from the search results, that item will be snapped to the center of the map. When you search for a river, the map will be centered at the mouth of the river. You can insert an IMS Fishing Hot Spots map card in the card reader and you can search for several categories of Fishing Hot Spot items. However, you must first locate the desired lake and center it in the map before searching for specific fishing items. When searching for any map item, you often must know the item's "official" name to locate it (especially the first part of the name). Here's an example search, showing the importance of knowing an official name: We'll look for Truman Lake, which is located in Henry County, Missouri. [. . . ] If you don't see the desired information, just zoom in a little closer until it becomes available. Water pop-ups now show the name of the water body. Interstate highway exit pop-ups show: the exit number, an exit description (usually the name of the cross street), the mile marker and exit services located off the highway within approximately one mile from the exit. Elevations are shown in pop-ups for POIs, land features and interstate highway exits. [. . . ]
