Opinion about GPS device

2007-10-28T21:19:00.000-07:00

Basically it is a very userful tool for navigation..but it depends on the accuracy of the map.

I tried to use Garmin Nuvi200 and found out that it is practically very useful for beginner which dont required funky functionality and just purely using it for navigation. It contained a few speaking language which are hokkien, cantonese, mandarin and japanese, this prompted me into fascinating to use the device more as I am pretty amazed on the technology.

What is GPS?

2007-10-02T07:26:00.000-07:00

Before I start introducing Garmin GPS, I guess anyone might interested in what is GPS.

I got the below definition quotes from wikipedia ^_^

"The Global Positioning System (GPS) is the only fully functional Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). Utilizing a constellation of at least 24 medium Earth orbit satellites that transmit precise microwave signals, the system enables a GPS receiver to determine its location, speed/direction, and time.
Developed by the United States Department of Defense, it is officially named NAVSTAR GPS (Contrary to popular belief, NAVSTAR is not an acronym, but simply a name given by Mr. John Walsh, a key decision maker when it came to the budget for the GPS program[1]). The satellite constellation is managed by the United States Air Force 50th Space Wing. The cost of maintaining the system is approximately US$750 million per year,[2] including the replacement of aging satellites, and research and development. Despite these costs, GPS is free for civilian use as a public good.
GPS has become a widely used aid to navigation worldwide, and a useful tool for map-making, land surveying, commerce, and scientific uses. GPS also provides a precise time reference used in many applications including scientific study of earthquakes, and synchronization of telecommunications networks."

As you can see, GPS is really a powerful tool for human to do navigation purpose.

Let say you may get lost in a jungle and in a such a bad luck, you also lost your compass...what should you do? Scream? Of course not! lol
In that kind of situation, a GPS device will be very useful for us to get out of the jungle....as long as we are in the earth, we are able to get statellite signal from everywhere in the world.

My personal favourite of GPS device will be Garmin. Their products are user friendly and handy. You can put the Garmin GPS into your pocket very easily and travel around the world.
