The GPSMAP 76 is designed to provide precise GPS positioning
using correction data obtained from the Wide Area Augmentation
System. This unit features a built-in quad helix antenna for
superior reception and can provide position accuracy to less
than three meters when receiving
WAAS
corrections.
The GPSMAP 76 has an internal memory capacity of eight
megabytes. In addition, it comes with a built-in basemap of
cities, coastlines, lakes, rivers, interstates, and interstate
exit information and a database of nautical navaids.
This unit has eight megabytes of internal user memory for
storing optional MapSource®— detailed maps, including marine
cartography. This memory is preloaded from the factory with
worldwide cities (populations greater than 200,000) and nautical
navigation aids such as lights, buoys, sound signals and day
beacons. The GPSMAP 76 is also preloaded with tide data for the
United States.
An extra-large display measuring 1.6"W x 2.2"H gives users a
clear view of information, while a waterproof case means the
GPSMAP 76 will keep working well even if it's been submerged in
water. Even more amazing, this unit will actually float if
accidentally dropped in the water. |
