Mag software

[Whitt]

Wondering what people are using to lay out their search grids for survey work?
We use a JW Fishers Pulse 12 or Proton 4, depending on the search. We used to have a boat set up for surveys and put the grid on our Garmin manually. This worked well, however, it was extremely time consuming. Regardless, we don't have a dedicated survey boat, and I realize most people are probably using a laptop with navigation software. Wondering what's out there? Thanks in advance.

You may want to check with J W Fishers as they have navigation software that comes with some equipment. If you bought a long time ago from them maybe not. Worth a call, Check with Chris he is very helpful.

Thanks guys. We did have the Tracker software, but need something a little more precise for the surveys, especially with the Pulse 12. Thanks again

So guys & gals - I spoke with Brian & he gave me a bunch of good ideas. I need a day or two with the mag & computer and I will let everyone know how it goes. Right now I need a new GPS antenna & receiver for the JW Fishers head unit. I'm open for suggestions, but not looking to spend a fortune. Our old Hemisphere had sub-meter accuracy.

How did it go with the mag & computer?
