What if I lost my GPS fishing or hunting data/points? I did not buy the additional
software to make custom maps on my computer from my GPS unit or I own a
handheld unit. Here is a suggestion to use a free State of Texas site to create a
backup GPS notebook page like the one I have pictured below.
Web Page:
http://134.125.70.235/drillers-new/index.asp Go to: Well Report Search By Map
At the left � Map Tools section: Click on (+) to zoom in
Place the curser over SW corner of Smith Co (Lake Palestine)
Click map 8 times centering on the 155 Hwy & Neches River
Go to: (XY) button to enter GPS lat longs.
( -95 deg is 95 deg west of London England � historical observatory
You many need to enter -95 deg in some mapping web sites such as
Topozone.com)
Either click on a spot on the map to create a GPS marker or plot a marker
from your own GPS data point. Enter: Lat 32 12 07 Long 95 28 51
Then click on Add Point To convert 32 12.121 times 0.121 x 60 = 07 sec
[+] Pan button drags the map. List Buffer/Points button adds your points to a list below.
Rest the curser on the horz line at the top of the purple GPS data area or just
above the words: �Click on the map� to move the purple GPS data area higher.
This purple section lists Lat Lon GPS data as Lon Lat (Deg Min Sec) on the left.
Once you have added a group of points and have moved, zoomed the map, and
listed your GPS lat long data push �Print Screen� button on your keyboard.
You can paste this on to MS Paint or a WORD.doc and customize your
own GPS notebook page. To convert 32.847690 to Deg Min Sec go to Topozone.com
If anyone has a better Web site let me know.
