So, if you have plans to ski off-piste, 4-wheel wadi bash in the Arabian deserts or sail off into the sunset – extreme sport no longer need translate to extreme prices or getting extremely lost.

Map reading ends relationships

For those who don’t know their north from south, or the M1 from the A303, GPS devices can be used in the car. Simply mount your GPS device to the dashboard, type in start and final destinations and be guided from start to finish. GPS is simple to use and a sure aid to preserving relationships between drivers and map readers.

Did you know?

• The GPS system uses a global network of satellites to provide accurate navigational information. GPS uses a constellation of satellites which orbit the earth and provide GPS transmissions to any user with a GPS receiver.

• The IMAX team planted GPS signaling devices on Everest to collect scientific information on the movement of the Indian and Asian plates?

• Unlike any other radio navigation technology, GPS is the most accurate technology available. It is not affected by the weather, it can be used anywhere in the world and works 24 hours a day. – ends Notes to editors

• You will not be charged to use the GPS satellites beyond the purchase of your GPS receiver.

• Some GPS receivers support the use of memory cards which allow more data to be stored than just the in-build memory. For example, if you want to be able to load large area maps into your GPS it’s wise to look at a GPS unit that has expandable memory, or large inbuilt memory.
