Pendatang Baru GPS Garmin: GPSMAP® 62s, GPS yang lebih ergonomis

Kawan-kawan Mappers dan Garminerz, telah hadir GPS tipe GPSMap 62s yang mudah digenggam, badax, dan bisa upload peta dan gambar.

Apa kelebihan GPS ini?
GPS tipe ini termasuk badax, jatuh tidak rusak. Karet pelindung tidak mudah terlepas (tidak seperti tipe etrex).

Sangat ergonomis, enak digenggaman serta nyaman. Layarnyapun lebih luas sehingga memudahkan pengamatan peta di GPS.

Daya simpannya tinggi, waypoints sampai 2.000, tracks 2000 dan routes 200. Nah dengan kapasitas ini saja Kawan-kawan Mappers tidak perlu buru-buru buka laptops untuk menyimpan waypoint, dan tracks bila sedang memetakan daerah rawan bencana.

Apa bedanya dengan tipe pendahulunya?
Yang sangat berbeda adalah kita bisa memasukkan gambar atau foto dan kita bisa jadikan foto itu sebagai navigasi kita.

Dengan GPS ini, Mappers dan Garminerz akan dengan mudah saling tukar waypoint, tracks, routes dan geocaches. Dengan memanfaatkan fungsi wireless-nya Kawan-kawan bisa saling berbagi.

Fungsi routing yang lebih baik akan memudahkan anda mencapai lokasi tujuan.

Berikut ini saya haturkan usus dan jeroan dari GPS ini, so … jangan ragu-ragu belilah disini, atau hub: tracknavigate[at]yahoo[dot]com.

Adding more maps is easy with Garmin's wide array of detailed topographic, marine and road maps. With 1.7G of onboard memory, you can conveniently download 24K and 100K topo maps and hit the trail, plug in BlueChart® g2 preloaded cards for a great day on the water or City Navigator NT® map data for turn-by-turn routing on roads (see maps tab for compatible maps). GPSMAP 62s also supports BirdsEye™ Satellite Imagery (subscription required), that lets you download satellite images to your device and integrate them with your maps. In addition, the 62s is compatible with Custom Maps, free software that transforms paper and electronic maps into downloadable maps for your device.
