Teaching with GPS

gps

I have written an article about teaching with GPS, which can be found at Juicy Geography. The page includes links to some Google Maps I prepared that show how GPS Visualizer can be used to plot fieldwork data.
GPS Visualizer seems to grow new features each week and is a brilliant application for displaying yourGPS data.. The other essential utility featured is Easy GPS. I hadn’t realized until recently that it now manages GPS tracks as well as routes and waypoints. Both these programs are free.

    Many thanks for the excellent instructions in your article. I have followed the instructions to the letter and have been having fun creating GPS trails and using Visualiser to produce Google Earth files and Google Maps that can go straight onto my website. I will be using this in September for sure. Magnalox has also been great for my bike ride analysis! Could you suggest an easy way to sequence photographs in the Magnalox story board?(the images do not have times on them).

    Hi Tom. I found your Magnalog quite easily!

    I’m not sure I used the times embedded in the images in my original demo because my digital camera clock was wrong. I just linked the images to particular points in the log.

    Volker at Magnalox is very helpfull btw.
