Map Datum Selection
Maps and charts are based on a survey of the area that's covered by the
map or chart. These surveys are called "Datum."
Maps that are created using different data will show the same latitude/longitude
in slightly different locations.
All data are named. The GPS system is based on the WGS-84 datum,
which covers the entire world. Other data may also cover the entire world,
or just a small portion of it. By default, your unit uses the WGS-84 datum.
To change the datum:
