Outdoors Navigator
Once in the field outdoor enthusiasts can navigate with “Outdoors Navigator“ using their iPhone or Android device to find trails, navigate off-road maps and share stories with their social networks. Trimble Outdoors Navigator provides access to more than 68,000 topo maps in the U.S. and Canada.
In the field, no connectivity is needed for the app to work. It will provide maps and navigation guidance as well as track over 10 adventure statistics including distance traveled, elevation gain/loss, and speed. It will also allow the user to capture location-tagged pictures, audio, video and personal notes.
?I think it's important to emphasize that a smartphone with a GPS app is not the same as a GPS using satellites. I'm no expert on smartphones, and there are probably some models which have both capabilities, but my 'Droid does not.
