• Open a track:
|

1. On the buttons bar, press ‘Open’.
2. Select the track that you want to open.
3. Once opened, track will be displayed at map window and listed at the data tree.
• Show a list of all opened tracks: This window shows you a list containing all the tracks that are currently opened on Land. From this window you can carry out several actions on tracks.
|
|
• Zoom to a specific track: Focus the selected track at map window in just a click.
• Show a list of all the track points contained in a single track: This window shows you a list containing all the points that make up the selected track. From this window you can carry out several actions on track points.

•Create a new track point by point:
1. At map window, open the contextual menu at the exact location where you want to create the reference.
2. Select ‘New > Start track here’. The first track point will created in that position.
3. Fill in the basic information of the track.
4. Select the location of the second track point and repeat this action up to the last point.
5. Once finished press ‘Close edition’.
• Create a new track dragging the mouse:

5. Once finished press ‘Close edition’.
IMPORTANT: To perform this action you must use a vectorial map (*.VMAP)
• View a graph representation of a track:

Display a graph representation of your track. These are the available functions on graphs.
•Guiding Y axis: Bar serving as moving axis.
• Change data fields on the X/Y axis: Click the axis that you want to change and select the data field from a list of available data fields to choose from.
•Moving graph: Use ‘Zoom’ buttons to sections of the graph with more detailed precision (graph scrolling can also be applied by dragging the graph up and down as well as laterally).
• Window zoom: Set the proportion of the zoom window to zoom in
•Automatic re-center: Press ‘Re-center’ button to automatically recenter the graph.
• Gradate the color of a track: Show the variation of a selected data field across the itinerary, for example, the altitude value for each of the track points.
