Showing Hybrid Maps

map information, such as street names, route numbers, and so on. The Hybrid Map feature
in the left map window lets you overlay this type of map information onto raster data.
Note You cannot create a route in the left map window. Once you create a route in the
right map window, the route line displays in the left map window.
To Show Roads and Text Labels on Imagery
Use the following steps to show roads, road names and numbers, names of bodies of water
and more on imagery in the left map window.
1.
Ensure the left map window is displaying and your raster data, such as Satellite
Imagery (Sat 10) or Aerial Imagery (DOQQ),is displayed.
