Can you get your latitude and longitude from this device?

This is a simplified GPS unit. It will show you latitude and longitude but it is feature / operation poor. It is meant as get back to where you came from in case of getting lost. It does have a compass. If you plan a hike / excursion a GPS is recommended. If you are a casual hiker who is afraid of getting lost, this backtrack simplified GPS will do.

Yes it does, although there are devices far more advanced this one has been like a faithful hunting dog to me. Rugged, very easy to use and very reliable! I've mishandled it (not on purpose) and it's still keeps on ticking

I bought mine from the Kim Komando site bit works by plugging it in to the top right gps slot. It does not display LAT/LONG or speed. It only provides this information on the app while reviewing the files along with the moving google earth map when on a PC or some other device.

I'm not using it in that manner.... just for the gps locations in relationship to a pre determined location. Sorry

No, but it has built-in wi-fi, and a way of logging your location through your phone's GPS if you are connected to your phone via the wi-fi app.

The short answer is NO. This device is only capable of calculating the GPS coordinate of your current location. It is not designed to guide you to any destination. If you decide to purchase an expensive Offline Map software (or Application, which you can download in your smartphone), then this device can provide you with additional accuracy, which is better than the accuracy of in-built GPS of the smartphones.

No, you need an external GPS adapter you can most likely find on amazon. Personally I woudnt get it, I don't see it working very well.

Yes that is exactly when it works, away from all connections. as long as you are outside and let it find sattelites, you will be able to use your map Programs. you may have to go to settings as it has to accept the Map program, then it will track onto your map on your tablet or phone, i personally use "Navigon Maps", and a Canadian topo map as well, good Luck, rick.m

It is just a GPS device sending out the location where it is, to any device which supports through Bluetooth connectivity. Say, you can use it instead of the GPS in your cell phone for retrieving the exact location in your map installed. Or, you can use it for some cameras with Bluetooth, while any of the photos you take in outdoor will have the location info in it.

Yes. There is a basic base map in your GPS which will show you where you are.

As far as I am aware... no. There are, however, a couple of apps that will allow you to use a tablet or a phone to display a GPS. I have not yet tried this myself and suggest google for more information. I have four of these FIP's and while expensive, I do like having them and do not regret the purchase.

No. I bought this for my mother as a present. By the time it came for her to open it, it was to late to return.the GPS doesn't work at all. Can't get a map to any where

It does, but it is a little different from most gps sensors in that the map program has to explicitly use it. Nokia "Here Maps" uses it.

Yes. I've never done it; but the manual says you can enter & find locations by geographic coordinates (e.g., helpful when geocaching).

Yes but you have to be connected to a wireless connection as it cannot be added to a wireless companys plans. It also needs restarting every few hours as it freezes. I don't think it has the specs it is advertised as having either. But it has GPS locating service so long as u have a wireless connection and it has Google maps

Yes. The sensor will gives you latitude, longitude,altitude, speed, heading, climb rate, time on my raspberry pi.

Yes, you might, if you have Android 3.1 or later. Just takes a bit of work, but no rooting required. 1) You have to download UsbGPS4Honeycomb_MR1_alpha.apk. Install it. You get USB GPS app, look for that name and a dish icon. 2) Enable "Allow mock locations" on your device by going to Settings &gt; Applications &gt; Development. Then, turn on "Allow mock locations". 3) Connect your GPS receiver via OTG cable or powered USB hub. 4) Figure out which USB Device the GPS antenna now is in your Android (looks like dev/bus/usb/001/002 etc). The free app 'USB Device Info' will help. Look for "Prolific' in 'Vendor Name'. 5) Start USB GPS app and tell it to use that port. 6) Turn on GPS in USB GPS app. If all is OK you will not see any error messages. The GPS is on now. You can get free apps like GPS Toolbox to see if GPS data is actually flowing. 7) Launch your favorite GPS navigation app (Google Maps will do for now). It should see the GPS signal without any tweaks. If not, then your Android device/phone/tablet may not be compatible. Google it.
