The most complete, easy-to-use GPS book available, this guide offers everything needed to get the most out of a receiver, from basic consumer advice to advanced techniques.

Book News Annotation:

Updating the 2004 edition, a California GPS instructor/avid hiker, introduces Global Positioning Systems (GPS) as a navigation tool rather than as an end in itself. Hinch clearly explains how to select and use a GPS receiver with/without a map and compass for serious navigation and tracking games, and answers frequently asked questions. The guide includes illustrations, resources, and a glossary. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
