With the built in 3-axis tilt-compensated compass, you can report an accurate heading even when the unit is not held level. The barometric altimeter displays bearing information and precise altitude information. Even while standing still. You can even plot barometric pressure over time to keep track of changing weather conditions. Measure elevations, to an accuracy of a few metres, and decide on heads of water. Envisage property land form, or dam design, with the elevation profile on any track. For recreation or aviation, work out rates of climb and descent, and read the elevation history profile.
The high-sensitivity GPS receiver features HotFix™. HotFix™ satellite prediction helps find your position quickly and precisely while the high-sensitivity GPS maintains its signal even in heavy cover and deep canyons. The
