Fugawi is an affordable,
feature-packed software that locates your exact position on land or sea.
FUGAWI is a complete navigational system that makes powerful use of
the extraordinary GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM. With FUGAWI, you easily
create accurate digital maps from any scanned map or existing map
database (ie. BSB MARINE CHARTS or USGS TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS). Then, in
real-time navigation mode, your exact position is displayed on the map
as you move and new maps are automatically loaded as you travel to new
areas. North American customers receive detailed street maps of the
entire USA as well as the nautical Region 1 Planning Charts on CD.
Customers outside of North America receive a World Geographic Names CD
with over 6.7 million names.
FUGAWI also brings you all the
convenience of computer mapping without having to carry it on your
travels. You simply position waypoints and routes on your map with a
click of the mouse and then upload them to your GPS receiver for use
out in the field. Upon returning to your base, you can download added
waypoints, routes and tracks onto the digital maps for analysis.
NEW FEATURE Fugawi can
upload any map from your PC to a Pocket PC (such as an iPAQ) or a Palm
device (O.S. 3.5+). Just select an area of a map and press a button.
Fugawi does the rest. Enjoy compact real-time GPS navigation with your
Pocket PC or Palm. Fugawi also synchronizes waypoints, routes and
tracks with the Palm or Pocket PC!
