7.2.1.7    Open a map from an Internet URL

 

If you are familiar with the URL address of the site where you will find the map you want, you can download it directly with this option. To do so, follow these steps:

 

1.   Go to ‘Maps > Download map from an Internet URL’ on the main menu. A new window will open up.

 

2.   Write the URL address of the web site where you’ll find the map.

 

3.   Click on ‘OK’ and the map will be automatically downloaded.

 

The URL where you’ll find maps usually start with ecwp:// instead of http://. Write these initials in any Internet browser (Goggle AltaVista…) and you will find loads of maps, although you will have to be patient to find exactly what you are looking fore. Another way of finding URL’s is to visit http://www.CompeGPS.com
