- Creating background maps using the Background Map
and Create Map utilities. When you create a background
map, you can import SHP, DXF or MIF files to add use-
ful details to your map. Remember however that back-
ground maps are for viewing only. You cannot edit them
or access information on their features. They provide a
backdrop, which gives visual orientation for your data
and waypoint files. If you want to edit the positions or
descriptions of a SHP, MIF or DXF file, you should
import them into a MobileMapper job file.
