GPS Tracking

Think of three ways that you could use the track function on the GPS. List them and explain their use.

  1. 1. You could use the track function on the GPS to know where you have been so that if you need to go back in the exact same way you can.
    2. You could use it to see how far you have gone on a trip like how far you have walked or driven.
    3. You could also you the track function to spell your name in the grass.

  2. 1.) Could be used while hiking.
    -If someone was hiking and there was no map of the trails, they could map them and sell them to foolish tourists for exhorbant prices.
    2.) Could be used to compare multiple tracks.
    -Could compare multiple trails for distance and time to complete the trails.
    3.) Could be used by a Bond impersonater.
    -If a James Bond wannabe was in a top secret Russian Something-or-Other-Base, he could use the track function to map out the base right before he gets filled with lead.

  4. 1. Using track function to show a route for biking, walking, running or other recreational activities. Using this would help track your distance and speed.
    2. Using track function to show places visited on a vacation. Using this would help show your overall trip and each place you visited.
    3. Using track function to show the difference in distance using different routes. Using this would help you find the shortest route from your current location to your destination.

  5. 1. Using the track function would help if you were on a hiking trip and got lost and didn't know your way back, you could always use it to track your way there so just in case you did get lost, you could find your way back easily.

    2. You could use it to make a design for a route to some place. For example, when we spelled our names in the grass.

    3. You could track your distance that you've gone and your speed! :)

  7. `You could use it if you like went on a trip or hike and didn't know where you were going exactly to get back.
    `You could use it if you were like making your own hiking trail and wanted to go on it again.
    `You could use it if you wanted someone to find a spot that you were at but couldn't take them.
