| The eTrex Vista combines a
basemap of North and South America, with a barometric
altimeter and electronic compass. The compass provides
bearing information while you're standing still and the
altimeter determines your precise altitude. The Vista is
also designed to provide precise GPS positioning using
correction data obtained from the Wide Area Augmentation
System (WAAS). This product will provide position accuracy
to less than three meters when receiving WAAS corrections.
The eTrex Vista also boasts an internal
memory capacity of 24 megabytes, which allows it to accept
downloaded mapping data from Garmin's MapSource®®
CD-ROMs, including Fishing Hot Spots®. A silver case
gives this unit a high-tech look. New to the product
design, Garmin will include marine aids to navigation in
addition to the basemap. These navigational aids will be
pre-loaded into each unit from the factory. |
