If you choose to use a mapping GPS receiver (one that you can upload maps to from a PC), you’re in the right chapter. And kudos to you to getting a model that really lets you maximize using your GPS receiver. You’ll be outdoor navigating and geocaching in no time. Here are the very cool things you can do with a PC-compatible receiver:
- Back up and store GPS receiver waypoints, routes, and tracks on your computer.
- Download waypoints, routes, and tracks from your GPS receiver to your computer to use with computer mapping programs.
- pload waypoints, routes, and tracks to your GPS receiver from other sources such as Internet sites, other GPS users, or mapping programs.
- Upload maps from your computer to your GPS receiver (if your receiver supports mapping). For more on selecting a GPS with mapping capabilities.
- Provide GPS data to a moving map program on a laptop for real-time travel tracking .
- Update your GPS receiver’s firmware.
