SUMMARY:Using Your GPS: Workshop
DESCRIPTION:A Global Positioning System or "GPS" receiver has become as common to work and play in forests as a compass. Yet many who own a GPS unit feel they are only using a small portion of its capabilities.This August\, a half-day University of Idaho Extension program titled "Using Your GPS" will introduce participants to the science underlying GPS and the wide range of tasks that can be accomplished with GPS and their accompanying technologies\, such as mapping programs\, Geographic Information Systems (GIS)\, and internet data sources. Topics to be discussed indoors include: Maps and Coordinate Systems\; How do Global Positioning Systems Work\; Entering Waypoints to a GPS\; Forestry Applications for GPS\; Shopping for a GPS Receiver\; and The Future of GPS and Allied Technologies.In the last half of the program\, participants will practice field exercises with a GPS receiver. Activities will include: assessing satellites and accuracy\; setting and locating waypoints\, marking trails\; streams\, etc.\; and estimating acreages.The program will be held on Saturday\, Aug. 9 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the University of Idaho Extension Office in Kootenai County. Those wishing to participate should pre-register by August 1 at the University of Idaho Extension office in the Kootenai County. A $20 registration fee covers resource materials and refreshments. The program is eligible for 3.5 Society of American Foresters CFE credits and 4 Idaho Pro-Logger credits.\n______________________________\nThis Event Downloaded From a Helios Calendar Powered Site
