Navigation along a route/track


Unlike point-to-point navigation where the route is calculated by Locus Map and is based on external navigation service, recorded or imported tracks or pre-planned routes stored in Data manager are autonomous items. Online calculating is needed only for rendering voice commands in case the track does not contain them itself.

To use this method successfully, you need GPS location fixed on or nearby the track.

Instructions

  • select a track from the Data manager and tap it for details >>
  • tap navigation button in the bottom panel and select Navigation
    • OR tap a track displayed on map > tap button on the label > select Navigation/guidance > Navigation
  • if your track does not contain built-in navigation commands, a dialog Generate navigation appears:
    • number of commands - sets number of rendered waypoints on track for which Locus Map adds navigation voice commands
    • start navigation - when checked the navigation starts immediately after confirmation. If unchecked, only track with highlighted waypoints remains.
    • Navigate - confirms the dialog and starts navigation/displays the track with the generated waypoints
  • if your track/route contains navigation commands, the navigation begins immediately
