Appendix 4: Displaying Specialty Maps
With Fishing or Aeronautical Data
A new feature in MapCreate 6.3 allows you to view LEI's special fishing
or aviation mapping products on the MapCreate screen. The feature
works with Inland Mapping System Fishing Hot Spots
fishing maps
or Jeppesen
Americas and Jeppesen
International aeronautical data-
bases, along with the Lowrance
Obstructions aeronautical database.
Showing fishing or aviation details on the computer makes it easier to
plan trips and manage waypoints, routes and other GPS data. All
MapCreate GPS data tools work just as they do with regular maps.
To display a special LEI map product, just place the memory card con-
taining the map or database in the MMC card reader, then launch Map-
Create. (You can also start MapCreate first, then insert the card.) In a
moment or two, MapCreate begins to read the map on the card, and the
hourglass symbol is shown in the lower left corner of the screen. While
the special map is read, the Master Map window may go blank for a mo-
ment before it reappears with the special mapping data displayed.
