BirdsEye

Garmin BirdsEye maps supplement the comprehensive topographic and/or

detailed street maps on your Garmin handheld device with brilliant high-resolution

satellite images or highly-detailed raster maps.

Transferring BirdsEye high-resolution imagery to your compatible Garmin

handheld device provides real-life views of roads, buildings and terrain, giving you

a true representation of your surroundings. These images can be layered with

existing Garmin and third-party vector maps installed on your handheld device.

BirdsEye Satellite

This annual subscription allows you to transfer an unlimited number of satellite

and aerial image segments to your device

Seamlessly integrate these images into your handheld's maps whenever you

need them

Coverage and level of detail will vary by location

BirdsEye TOPO

Enhance your journey with detailed raster maps for the U.S. and Canada

This 1-year subscription allows you to transfer an unlimited amount of 1:24,000 scale USGS and 1:50,000 scale

NRC raster maps to your compatible handheld device

With USGS/NRC raster maps, you will have a new level of detail specifically where you need it most

BirdsEye Select

BirdsEye Select is highly-detailed raster imagery that covers areas of Germany, France, Great Britain and Ireland,

as well as Kompass-branded map coverage for Austria + East Alps (Southern Germany/Northern Italy) and

Switzerland

Each single purchase allows you to select and purchase custom sections (a set amount of square kilometers per

region) of BirdsEye Select raster imagery for transfer to your Garmin handheld device

Detailed 1:25,000 or 1:50,000 scale raster maps give a new level of detail for your maps specifically where you

need it, whether a campsite, remote retreat or extreme sports event

BirdsEye Map Archive

You will not be able to send BirdsEye maps from BaseCamp to your GPSr after the subscription expires

BirdsEye maps are stored on your GPSr or µSD card in the [Device]\Garmin\BirdsEye\ directory as *.JNX files

These *.JNX files are encrypted to the active subscription device selected in step 07

The GPSr selected in step 07 is the only device that can open and use the encrypted *.JNX files

Make copies of all *.JNX files on your active subscription GPSr and store them on your computer

Copy the desired *.JNX files back to your GPSr freely, as often as you need them

Archived copies of *.JNX files will continue to function after the BirdsEye subscription has expired
