called support points and displays the route
as a series of lines. If the route is then calcu-
lated, COMAND attempts to align the recor-
ded route with the digital map.
The support points of the route may not be on
a digitized road.
This is often the case for routes that have
been calculated using map data from other
sources. Route guidance
