This program integrates GIS Software (ESRI’s ArcMap, Google Earth) with GPS units. It uses a C# program that interacts with the GPS via a serial/USB port allowing GIS users to transfer Waypoints, Tracks, and Routes from a GPS to ArcMap or Google Earth and store them as points, lines or polygons. Information can also be uploaded from various FILE TYPES to the GPS and used as waypoints, tracks, or routes.
DNR GPS can also be used to perform real-time tracking with your GPS and GIS. Connected to a laptop computer with ArcMap, a Garmin GPS can be a valuable tool for locating oneself and for interactive data collection.
