Navigating to a Destination
Using the
NAV
key, the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C provides four ways to navigate
to a destination: Go To Point, Follow Track, TracBack, and Follow Route.
When you are actively navigating, you see a straight line on the Map Page that
always runs from your current location to the destination. The easiest method
for selecting a destination is the Go To function, which allows you to select a
destination point, and then set a direct course to it from your present location. If
you highlight a point on a list or the map and press
NAV
,
Go To <point name>
appears in addition to
Go To Point
. The Go To function can be accessed from any
list of points or from the map display.

Selecting a Map Item Go To Destination
A Go To can be used to select one of three items from the map display—an
existing waypoint, on-screen map items such as rivers, cities, navaids, or a new
map point. If you select a map item as the Go To destination, the GPSMAP
3006C/3010C automatically uses the name of the map item, but the point is not
stored in the waypoint list. If you select a new map point (non-map item) as the
Go To destination, the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C automatically creates a waypoint
named
MAP
at the pointer location.

ROCKER
to highlight the waypoint or map item to which you want
to navigate on the Map Page, and press
NAV
