You might choose to leave a trail of crumbs in order to find your way back out of the forest but in his new book, Fun with GPS, Donald Cooke will show how you can record a track with your GPS, download it to a PC, then map the GPS's travels with GIS software. Don brings the science of GPS alive by attaching a GPS receiver to cars in ice-races, skiers, a neighborтАЩs dog, a wheelchair athlete in the Boston Marathon, pond-hockey players, dogsleds, windsurfers, iceboats, canoes and his cat. By tracking these activities Don shares insights and discoveries about GPS technology in Fun with GPS: Understanding and Enjoying the Ninth Utility released by ESRI Press in the fall of 2004. Don Cooke is the founder of Geographic Data Technology (GDT), the premier developer of map databases that help businesses and consumers manage, understand, and analyze geographic relationships. DonтАЩs enthusiasm and knowledge help us explore our connected world through the eyes of a GPS.
