database for detailed areas. Attributes include
information such as street names, street address, turn
restrictions, etc. A detailed area includes all major
highways, service roads, and residential roads. The
detailed areas include points of interest (POI) such as:
restaurants, airports, banks, hospitals, police stations,
gas stations, tourist attractions, historical monuments,
etc. The map database may not include data for newly
constructed areas or map database corrections that are
completed after the production of the disc. The navigation
system provides full route guidance in the detailed
map areas.
Limited Guidance Areas
Any area that is not classied as detailed, is a limited
guidance area. Limited guidance streets are displayed
on the map but route guidance may not be given
