Key Features
GPS has a variety of applications on land, at sea and in the air. The most common airborne applications are for navigation by general aviation and commercial aircraft. At sea, GPS is also typically used for navigation by recreational boaters, commercial fishermen, and professional mariners. Land-based applications are more diverse. GPS is now commonplace in automobiles as well. Some basic systems are in place and provide emergency roadside assistance at the push of a button (by transmitting your current position to a dispatch center). More sophisticated systems that show your position on a street map are also available.
Most of the new sophisticated systems show your position on a map. The Basemap GPS unit will show interstates, highways, lakes, rivers, railroads, cities, airport location etc. The Mapping GPS units have the ability to download detailed maps from PC.
