Making GPS Better

Improve your GPS experience before, during and after going into the field. If you are looking for easier ways to program your GPS and transfer useful information to maps and reports, Terrain Navigator will help.

Here's what you'll need to get started:

Before Heading Outdoors: Uploading Waypoints and Printing Maps

Create routes and Marks in Terrain Navigator and then transfer them right into your GPS. No more hand-keying lat/lon positions through the GPS menu system!

You can also print out your map as a paper backup.

In the Field:
Follow your Route, Create Marks, Keep a Track Log, Look at a Moving Map

Here are some good ways to use your GPS:

• Locate your position and follow pre-planned routes
• Mark points of interest and record tracks for later analysis
• Take a laptop along and you'll have a moving map display. You move and the map moves!
• "Put Maptech in your Hand" by connecting with a Pocket PC handheld running Pocket Navigator (sold separately)

Back in the Office: Analyzing the Results

Download your Tracks into your PC and let Terrain Navigator go to work. Here are some common ways to use GPS tracklogs:

• Measure Distances
• Measure Areas
• Measure Elevation Changes
• Print the Results on Paper
• Email the Route to Other Terrain Navigator Users
