What is navigation?
The term “navigation” (lat. navigare = to
travel by sea) is generally understood to
mean the location of a vehicle, the deter-
mination of the direction and distance
from the desired destination and the
required route. As navigation aids, stars,
prominent landmarks, compass and sat-
ellites are used.
With Traffic Pro, location is determined
with the GPS receiver (GPS = Global
Positioning System). The direction and
distance from the destination are deter-
mined using a digital road map, a navi-
gation computer and sensors. A speed-
ometer signal and a reverse signal are
additionally used to calculate the route.
For safety reasons, navigation is pre-
dominantly in spoken form supported
by a direction indicator on the display.
