Status bar

The status bar is a practical tool that allows you to quickly consult data without the need for complex interactions with the map. 

Its main function is to display information immediately when moving the cursor over a point of interest on the map.

Immediate data display

When moving the cursor over the map, the data updates automatically, without the need to click. This allows quick consultation of values such as:

• The exact altitude of a point on the map.

• Its geographic coordinates.

Information on Tracks
