GPS Movie (Part 1)

Here's a movie created by Trimble. I love it because inside 5 minutes you get the Who, What ,Where and How of GPS.

GIS, GPS and Field Data Collection Extension Course

Happy New Year! On the weekend of February 9 and 10 at CSULB I will be teaching a GIS, GPS and Field Data Collection extension course. We will not be sitting in the classroom discussing theory, on the first day a Garmin unit is handed to each student. We go over how to set up the unit, navigate, collect GPS data and then download the data onto ArcMap and Google Earth. On day two we play with more sophisticated Trimble Units and Trimble's Pathfinder software. If interest check out the link below, more the merrier!
