Using Moving Map Navigation, the map centeres current position and will therefore move with you. This makes it easy for you to navigate visually in your environment. You can either do that with street level maps or in remote areas with maps composed of satellite photos.
You can as well use Spot's routing feature for navigation. It will guide you to a waypoint and gives you information on the distance, estimate time of arrival etc.
