Using Map Files
Map Files Overview
You can save all of the work that you have done as a single map File so you can open it
again later. You can create various map views and save each in a different map file, if
desired. In this way, you can save separate views of often-viewed areas at your preferred
zoom level and other settings. Then, open them as you need them using the Map Files tab.
What is a Map File?
A Map File consists of the map center coordinates, the current data zoom level, the current
magnification, rotation, preferences, and links to routes or draw layers you have added to it.
As you create routes and draw layers, they are added to the currently selected map file.
Map files are saved by default in C:\DeLorme Docs\Map Files.
Each associated file is saved in its respective folder in the C:\DeLorme Docs directory. For
example, a draw layer is saved in C:\DeLorme Docs\Draw.
Set the Map File Street Atlas USA Opens When you Start the Program
Use the Welcome screen to set how Street Atlas USA opens map files. You can create a new
map file each time the program opens OR open the file you last used.
Use Draw Layers and Routes in Another Map File
After creating routes or adding your own roads, you may not want to do all of the work
again in another map file. You can share routes and draw layers between map files using
the Add button in the Map Files tab.
Send Routes or Draw Layers to Another Street Atlas USA User
You can package map files, including their routes and draw layers, into one transfer file. The
transfer file facilitates e-mailing, copying map file information to other computers and
copying map files between DeLorme programs.
Note for regular Street Atlas USA users
This Help topic describes functionality provided in advanced file management.
Advanced file management allows you to save multiple routes and draw layers in
a single map file. With simplified file management, you can save only one route
and/or draw layer in a single map file. If you did not select to enable advanced
file management during the product installation, you can still change the settings
using the Change File Management option in the Options menu. For more
information, see
Activating Advanced/Simplified File Management
