You can depend on Garmin's GPSMAP 62 series to pull you through!
Now available from York Survey Supply Centre, these toughened navigators combine high-precision accuracy and functionality to brave the demands of any challenge.
"When the terrain gets tough, you can depend on the GPSMAP 62 handheld navigator to guide you through," says technical advisor, Bob Wells, "Inspired by the powerful GPSMAP 60 series, this rugged and waterproof GPS combines high-precision accuracy with high functionality to brave the demands of any terrain you dare to tackle!"
"All three GPSMAP 62 models feature a 2.6-inch sunlight-readable colour screen and built-in worldwide basemap with shaded relief, so you can navigate anywhere with ease."
"The GPSMAP 62s and 62st both have a built-in 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass, which helps you get your orientation and points you towards your destination even when you’re standing still, without holding it level. Its barometric altimeter tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude. View elevation and profile on the altimeter screen and you can even plot barometric pressure over time to keep an eye on changing weather conditions."
Bob continues to describe the key features: "A quad helix antenna and high-sensitivity, WAAS/EGNOS-enabled GPS receiver with HotFix® satellite prediction ensures that GPSMAP 62 has unparalleled reception to locate your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep valleys. The advantage is clear - whether you’re in deep woods or just near tall buildings and trees, you can count on GPSMAP 62 to help you find your way when you need it the most."
"With space to store up to 2000 waypoints and 200 routes, GPSMAP 62’s detailed route planning and tracking helps you navigate from point-to-point and keep track of your journey as you go."
"GPSMAP 62 has a built-in worldwide basemap with shaded relief," he continues, "Adding more maps is easy with Garmin's wide array of detailed topographic, marine and road maps, which can be loaded to internal memory. With a simple connection to your computer and to the Internet, you can get a detailed analysis of your activities and send tracks to your outdoor device using Garmin Connect™. Simply upload activities saved on GPSMAP 62 from your latest job to keep a record on the web or swap ideas with your colleagues."
"GPSMAP 62 supports geocaching GPX files for downloading geocaches and details straight to your unit," adds Bob, "By going paperless, you're not only helping the environment but saving time you would otherwise waste manually entering details before you set off. GPSMAP 62 stores and displays key information, including location, terrain, difficulty, hints and descriptions, which means no more manually entering coordinates or paper print outs! Simply upload the GPX file to your unit and start hunting for caches. Slim and lightweight, GPSMAP 62 is the perfect companion for all your outdoor pursuits."
"The entry level GPSMAP 62 can be yours for only £221.27," he concludes, "Alternatively you can upgrade to the GPSMAP 62s for £297.88 or take the top choice of a GPSMAP 62st for only £340.42! As with any order over £150 placed with us, all these handhelds are delivered FREE anywhere in the UK!"
