ON SCREEN FUNCTION
FINDING MORE OR LESS DETAILED MAPS
THE CONCEPT
Ozi Explorer operates by joining lots of map images together like a puzzle to form
a complete topographical map of Australia. Maps may vary in scale also. Base
maps (such as an over view map of Australia) display a large area with less detail.
More detailed maps such as the 1:250,000 topographic maps reveal much more
detail.
To get an overview of an area, base maps are very handy, however to obtain
more information in one particular area, drilling down to a detailed topographical
map is necessary.
To switch between the difference scale maps, press the
[more detail]
or
[less
detail]
buttons.
UNDERSTANDING SEARCH FOR MORE / LESS DETAILED
Finding more or less detailed maps is not to be confused with the zoom function;
using the zoom will only magnify the map on the screen. The difference with
switching to a more detailed map is that a different, more detailed map is loaded.
IMPORTANT:
Zooming the map will not automatically change the map scale.
UNDERSTANDING THE ZOOM FUNCTION
Zooming in and out of a map is the same as looking through magnifying glass at
a paper map. if you want to get a closer look you would zoom in, if you wanted to
see more of the map on screen at once you would zoom out.
A map at 10% zoom level. Notice that a large portion of the map
is visible. For more legibility, zoom in on a particular area.
