Navigation


About

Locus Map provides standard turn-by-turn navigation with voice orders from one point to another or along a defined route or saved track. In the first case the navigation source is external and can be selected from several providers. The navigation calculates the route according to selected means of transport - car, bicycle or foot and is processed online so it necessary to maintain the internet connection.

Navigation along a route or a track follows user-defined line objects. Locus Map renders the voice orders automatically offline from the shape of the route/track.

Consists of the street/road No. indicator (1), indicator of the shape and distance of the next turn (2) and two adjustable fields (3,4), that can display:

  • Distance to target (3) (default)
  • Time to target (4) - estimated time calculated upon your average speed
  • Time of arrival - estimated arrival time calculated upon your average speed
  • Time to next junction - time to the next crossroads where the direction will be changed
  • Time - device clock
  • Altitude - current altitude of the user, calculated from GPS or the device barometer
  • Speed - current speed

In some cases the road number indicator may be empty as the navigation source does not have it registered.

Can be displayed by tapping the turn shape and distance indicator.
