Satellite
Navigation for Walkers
I've recently bought a
Satmap
Active 10 device to help me find my route and to record the
speeds, distances and altitudes of my walks.
On this page I plan to put some useful tips and links for other users
of
this device.
Why I chose Satmap Active 10
I've had satellite navigation in my car for some time and whilst I
actually enjoy reading a map have appreciated satellite navigation
sometimes when I have got lost. Whilst walking I have
occasionally found a right of way obstructed and wondered whether I was
actually where I thought I was! I chose the Satmap Active 10 as I
liked the large colour map and the fact that the device is deigned for
out of door usage.
