Navigation


About

Locus Map provides two kinds of navigation:

  • Point-to-point navigation

    Standard turn-by-turn navigation with voice orders from point A to point B with route calculated by an external routing service (navigation data source). Locus Map supports several routing services - online or offline. The routing service calculates the route according to selected navigation profile (activity or means of transport) - car, bicycle, foot etc. In case of online routing services it is necessary to maintain the internet connection.Continue >>

  • Navigation along a route

    Follows user-defined or imported routes. Locus Map renders voice navigation commands automatically from the shape of the route. Continue >>

Consists of the street name/road number indicator (1), indicator of the shape and distance of the next two turns (arrow box)(2) and two adjustable fields (3,4) that can display:

  • Distance to target (3) (default)
  • Time to target (4) (default) - 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 street name/road number indicator may be empty as the navigation source does not have it in its database.

Can be displayed by tapping the arrow box.

  • topbar contains a shortcut button to navigation settings
  • Track - displays track detail window
  • Itinerary - displays a list of turning points along the route
  • Recalculate - manual trigger of route recalculation and indicator of selected navigation profile. Short tap recalculates the route in selected navigation profile. Long tap opens a menu of other available profiles so that the route is recalculated in a different profile.
  • Nearest point - shifts the map to the nearest route point
  • Select voice - displays a table of installed voices to select from
  • End navigation - stops navigation and deletes the calculated route
  • Volume slider and Mute check-button - sets volume of voice commands

Here you can set your navigation data source, voice commands etc. Continue >>
