Presentation
summary: The dawn of the 21st Century ushered
in the era of accessible Consumer-Grade GPS receivers for private forest
landowners. Consumer-Grade, also known as Recreation-Grade and/or
Civilian-Grade, GPS receivers have become reasonably priced, user friendly and
capable of meeting the accuracy standards required for forestland
management. A Consumer-Grade GPS receiver paired with free software is a
powerful solution that empowers a landowner to map, delineate, archive, analyze
and navigate their forest. Join me as I demonstrate how to marry
Consumer-Grade GPS hardware with software technologies. This webinar will
provide participants a baseline understanding of how to purchase and use a
Consumer-Grade GPS receiver.
