Note: If you have selected the 2 km resolution, each vector represents an area
of 2 km (1.08 nm). You must change to a new vector once you have moved 1.08
nm from your starting point. The cumulative distance column will help you keep
track of the distance and let you know when to change vectors. Denote the
change of vector by ***.
