Magellan GPS
By Jax Rolo of Magellan GPS Depot
GPS, short for Global Positioning System, is a arrangement of 24 satellites that orbit the earth continuously measuring their positions. The GPS Device is a piece of equipment that sends and receives signals to and from the satellites in an attempt to determine your current position. GPS devices were long used by boats and airplanes, but the equipment has become so affordable, that consumers can now buy them for personal use. With a GPS device in hand, you can stand in the middle of a football field, and it will establish the latitude and longitude coordinates, and even altitude if it has enough satellites tracked. A device can store your position in memory so that you can refer back to it later on. When publishing your football field transcription, noting the coordinates will present readers with a precise location. Should someone have a GPS device of their own, they will be able to find the football field easily. To find a football field, merely enter the coordinates into the GPS device, and it will point the way. The lower-end models will use a compass pointer to show you which way to go, along with the distance, your current traveling speed, and estimated time of arrival. Higher-end models contain mapping data to give a street map. Most all GPS devices will update its information every second. I did a lot of research on the Internet trying to figure out what I should buy for myself, what brands are the best, and to learn something about the features so that I could decide what I would need. I purchased the Magellan 3200. It’s a low end GPS Device but it was less than $100. I am happy with it for now but will probably upgrade at a later date.
