  •  Includes a "Hazards" file. The "Hazard file" is provided in the interests of vehicle safety. It contains the positions of known Red light Cameras, Fixed Radar Speed Cameras, Steep descents (Steep Hills), and Bridges with height restrictions. With a GPS receiver connected to the laptop, entering a "hazard proximity" will display the vehicle speed on the map, and sound a warning if a sound card or buzzer is connected.
  • The "Hazards file" can be edited using a text editor such as "Windows Notepad" to provide a user defined database,- instructions are in the file.
  • Digital mapping shown on the Trax program cannot be loaded in to a Garmin GPS. Points located on the digital maps by the cursor as a latitude/longitude, can be manually keyed in to a Garmin GPS.
  •  "Trax" will be supplied on the CDrom with any maps ordered (and available through Johnny Appleseed GPS). Your maps can be viewed without additional software. The user can link the GPS receiver to the Laptop for a moving map display. "Trax" will constantly indicate the vehicles position on the map, automatically opening adjacent maps as required
  • "Trax" will not provide waypoints, route planning or track recording. A customer requiring the additional features should look at either:

  • 1. moving map software systems such as Fugawi 3- both moving map and point and track management facilities.

    or Oziexplorer- same functions.
  • or 2. Garmin Mapsource which is available for point and track management facilities on a mapped background, and moving map functions with a GPS on a laptop.
