Cities and Addresses
To enter a trip, begin by typing the name of the place where your trip will start or a postal
code in the
City, State
(or
City, Country
) box (e.g. “
princeton, nj
” or “
paris, fr
” or
“
08540
”), then press the
Enter
key. Do not include periods in the state/country abbreviation.
A list of matches to your entry may appear; if so, highlight the one you want on the list and
click
Select
.
NEW Feature:
If this is not your first use of CoPilot, you can click on the pick list arrow at
the end of the
City/State
box to see a list of all locations that have previously been entered
as stops. Select any location from the list to enter it.
To enter a street address, click in the
Address
box. (This is not required. If no street address
is entered, CoPilot will route from a point at the center of the city or town you selected.)
Again, a list of matches to your entry may appear; if so, highlight the one you want on the
list and click
Select
, or click
Map
to see it on the map. If you enter a street address you can
also assign a name to the address by typing it into the
Name
box.
You can enter a
crossroad
as a stop by using an ampersand (
&
). Example: If you want to go
to the corner of Main Street and Washington Street, type “
Main & Washington
” in the
Address field. You might see a list of matches - these are addresses where the streets
intersect.
Click the
Add Stop
button to put the place you entered in the
Trip
Itinerary
. You can then highlight it and click the
Zoom To
button to
see that place on the map.
HINT:
If you need help with the spelling of a city name, type the first few letters (at
least two) plus the state abbreviation and press
<Enter>
. Then highlight the place on the
list and click
Select
. Spelling help for street names is accessed by entering the first two
or more letters of the street name. The pick list will take longer to come up when there
are more matches to your entry in the database.
