MapSource products provide geographic data in CD-ROM/DVD-ROM format that can be viewed on a PC. Additionally, some Garmin units can accept map downloads from various MapSource products to augment the detail already on your Garmin GPS basemap.
All MapSource products include the trip and waypoint manager functions for transferring waypoints, routes, and tracks. Your preference for map detail and your specific activities will determine which MapSource product is right for you. MapSource gives you the flexibility to select the mapping coverage you need.
While using MapSource, the trip and waypoint planning function is compatible with nearly all Garmin GPS systems. The map transfer feature is compatible with numerous Garmin GPS units please check your specific Garmin GPS unit and MapSource product for compatibility.
For those who navigate the urban jungle, MapSource offers titles with detailed street maps, address lookup and points of interest listings. With this kind of data downloaded to your compatible Garmin GPS, you can literally travel to a new city, look up your hotel, restaurants, attractions and other services and use your GPS to guide you there without ever stopping for directions. It offers automatic route capability on the PC, which means you simply select a starting point and destination and MapSource calculates a route, which you can then download to your unit.
For those units that accept the map transfer feature, users can either download MapSource CD- ROM/DVD-ROM content to data cards or directly to their units depending on the GPS product they own. To download information directly to your GPS, simply connect your Garmin GPS to your PC using a compatible PC serial interface cable or USB interface cable (depending on your model). Select the map areas on screen, and with the click of the mouse, the information downloads to your GPS.
When using a locked MapSource product, the real-time track plotting function will work only with a valid unlock code for the GPS unit being used (not all units will be compatible with this). Each MapSource product is sold separately; however, more than one product can be used and downloaded into a Garmin-compatible unit. Note the MapSource Application will not support real-time tracking any longer.
