chillin209 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Is there a way on Geocache Navigator (for a mobile phone) to obtain coordinates of your current location to hide a cache? If so how accurate is it? Thank you Quote Link to comment
5ville Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 You are able to view your current coordinates; however, you have to be actively searching for a cache to view your current coordinates. This is easy to do by simply entering any cache codes or searches nearby to view your current coordinates. You may also want to take a look at the Trimble Outdoors software for the ability to mark waypoints (coordinates). The availability and accuracy of Java programs that use GPS-derived location information varies according to the environment in which the GPS feature is used. Where adequate signals cannot be obtained, GPS functions may not work at all. Since you are hidden from over half the satellites available at any given time you could experience up to a 30 ft. error. This is standard with most handheld GPS receivers. -Trimble Outdoors support Quote Link to comment
