+<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
+
+ Files used by <a href="../man7/map.html"><i>map</i>(7)</a> are a sequence of structures of the form:
+
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <tt><font size=+1>struct {<br>

+ } segment;<br>

+ </table>
+ };<br>
+ </font></tt>where <tt><font size=+1>short</font></tt> stands for 16-bit integers and there is no padding
+ within or between <tt><font size=+1>structs</font></tt>. Shorts are stored in little-endian
+ order, low byte first. To assure portability, <i>map</i> accesses them
+ bytewise.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ Fields <tt><font size=+1>patchlatitude</font></tt> and <tt><font size=+1>patchlongitude</font></tt> tell to what 10-degree
+ by 10-degree patch of the earth&#8217;s surface a segment belongs. Their
+ values range from &ndash;9 to 8 and from &ndash;18 to 17, respectively, and
+ indicate the coordinates of the southeast corner of the patch
+ in units of 10 degrees.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ Each segment of |<tt><font size=+1>n</font></tt>| points is connected; consecutive segments
+ are not necessarily related. Latitude and longitude are measured
+ in units of 0.0001 radian. If <tt><font size=+1>n</font></tt> is negative, then differences
+ to the first and succeeding points are measured in units of 0.00001
+ radian. Latitude is counted positive to the north and longitude
+ positive to the west.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ The patches are ordered lexicographically by <tt><font size=+1>patchlatitude</font></tt> then
+ <tt><font size=+1>patchlongitude</font></tt>. A printable index to the first segment of each
+ patch in a file named <i>data</i> is kept in an associated file named
+ <i>data</i><tt><font size=+1>.x</font></tt>. Each line of an index file contains <tt><font size=+1>patchlatitude, patchlongitude</font></tt>
+ and the byte position of the
+ patch in the map file. Both the map file and the index file are
+ ordered by patch latitude and longitude.<br>
