Garmin GPS V
The Garmin GPS V is truly an all-round
navigation system
Although there are different navigation systems aimed at different kinds
of users, the Garmin GPS V system is truly an all round system with
features which are applicable in a variety of situations and
expeditions. Whether you are looking for an auto based road navigation
system, or a portable trekking unit, you will find that the Garmin GPS V
has a mode for you.
This versatility doesn’t make the basic unit any more expensive to own
than others on the market, either, and the advantage of the Garmin GPS V
is that it is portable enough to serve as a vehicular and handheld unit.
Indeed, among the included accessories are a wrist strap and 12 volt
adapter for the cigarette lighter found in most vehicles.
If you are a mariner, then you will feel reassured by the features that
the Garmin GPS V boasts for boating use. There are a series of alarms to
check for anchor drag and off course navigation, as well as built in
celestial tables and variable position formats so that you can align the
readings with a traditional paper chart.
Quite why you would still need a paper map is, however, we don’t know.
The Garmin GPS V comes with enough PC connectivity features, as well as
compatibility with standard mapping formats to ensure that even if the
maps that are supplied with the system (which go down to street level)
are not enough, then you will certainly be able to supply your own.
