WHAT FUGAWI SHOWS YOU: Shows your track and current location on the screen Full navigational features: speed, waypoints, routes, distance to go, course to steer, magnetic and true courses Built-in Odometers and Trip Odometers to calculate distance traveled Geographic Name lookup. Look up a name and click to autoload a map. Distance and bearing measurement tool HOW FUGAWI WORKS AUTOMATICALLY: Plots points and reads co-ordinates from maps with exceptional precision Optimizes the number of track points (based on user-specified tolerance) with Smart Track Reduction Loads appropriate map from your own digital map library as you travel Automatically converts the GPS datum (WGS 84) to the map datum. In fact, users in Sweden, Finland, Austria, The Netherlands, Switzerland and New Zealand will find that the conversion in FUGAWI is more accurate than the conversion in their GPS receivers or other mapping programs Exports waypoints and tracks with UTM coordinates or latitude/longitude

HOW YOU WORK WITH FUGAWI: Select a chart datum from over 100 possibilities or create your own Create a waypoint by clicking, eliminating time-consuming plotting. Draw tracks and routes freehand. Or draw free-hand around an area on the map and FUGAWI will accurately calculate the area enclosed Select location icons like: boats, planes, cars, hikers or targets that rotate as you change direction. And any icon can mark a waypoint Upload waypoints and routes from your PC to your Garmin, Lowrance/Eagle, Micrologic or Magellan GPS receiver for field use or download waypoints, routes and tracks to your PC for analysis or mapping (View our GPS compatibility table) Create a Geographical Information System database by clicking on a map location
