POSITION PAGE
Overview
The GPSMAP 175 position page shows you where you are, what direction
you are heading and how fast you are going. The top of the page features a
graphic compass tape to indicate your cardinal heading (while you’re
moving), and four user-selectable data fields: course over ground (COG),
speed over ground (SOG), distance traveled (TRP) and altitude (ALT). The
bottom half of the page displays your present position’s coordinates, along
with the time of day as calculated using GPS satellites. The status bar at the
bottom of the page indicates position fix status, and is described in detail on
page 24.
The units of measure for speed, distance, position and altitude are all user-
selectable through the navigation setup option on the main menu page. The
time of day, shown in UTC (Universal Time Coordinated, or Greenwich Mean
Time) may be set to display in a 12- or 24-hour time format (with a local
offset) through the system setup option on the main menu page.
