8. 8 Outline SG Ch. 5 Objectives Using GPS As a Navigation Tool What GPS Can Do GPS Receiver Keyboard Functions Typical GPS Screens Entering Waypoints Into the GPS What the GPS Does When You Select a Waypoint Navigating Using GPS and Waypoints

9. 9Objectives Using GPS As a Navigation Tool GPS Keyboard Functions Typical GPS Screens Constructing Routes Checking Waypoints and Routes Stored in GPS Activating Waypoints For Navigation What the GPS Does when a Waypoint Is Activated The Process of Navigating With GPS Plotting Your GPS Position On a Chart

10. 10 Using GPS As a Navigation Tool GPS Without Charting Software –Like Using Loran: It will give you position on the water: then need to plot on a paper chart –Like Loran, could store waypoints on GPS for use while on the water GPS With Charting Software –Like a Chart-plotter –Can Pre-Plan –Can punch in waypoints while on the water and GPS will show track. Can build routes

11. 11 What GPS Can Do Provides position: L and Lo Can calculate a course to steer between waypoints It can calculate estimated arrival time, ETA

12. 12 What GPS Cannot Do Warn of hazards (USPS) –Translation from USPS: You have to look on a chart to see if the course is safe –Actually it has a proximity warning function Determine water depth

13. 13 GPS Keyboard Functions Power Button: On/off Cursor Key: rocker switch Enter Button/ Mark: Yes; enters current waymark (on the water) Menu Button Quit Button: like an escape key or back button Go To Button Page Button MOB Button: Man Overboard Zoom Buttons
