What Exactly Are Continental Tiles?
Continental tiles refer to a certain type of tile that will provide “wide area” data. You might say they are the opposite of our HD tiles which provide very high resolution data. There are two ways to obtain continental tiles, either through installing the largest size grids in the grid view, or purchasing the state maps from within the app. If you have purchased the Colorado State map, for instance, you will have the continental tiles installed for that state. If you want the HD tiles for that state, you may then go to the grid view, zoom in, and select the HD tiles to install for your areas of interest within that state. In effect, the HD maps for National Parks and other recreational areas provide a convenient way to obtain HD tiles for a specific area of interest.
