Information
Mapping
Traverse, TransNav, and TraverseEdge 100 system documentation uses the Information
Mapping format which presents information in small units or blocks. The beginning of
an information block is identified by a subject label in the left margin; the end is
identified by a horizontal line. Subject labels allow the reader to scan the document and
find a specific subject. Its objective is to make information easy for the reader to
access, use, and remember.
Each procedure lists the equipment and tools and provides step-by-step instructions
required to perform each task. Graphics are integrated into the procedures whenever
possible.
