Magellan SporTrak Color

SporTrak Color provides superior tracking and accuracy, showing your position to within 3 meters, even in difficult environments such as cities or mountains. Featuring an impressive 10 MB North American or 11 MB European, built-in mapping database, SporTrak Color puts rich color maps at your fingertips. The large, high contrast, full color 240 x 160 pixel display enables you to easily find your location, heading and route. An additional 22 MB for North America or 21 MB for Europe of memory enables you to expand your mapping capabilities by uploading detailed maps from optional Magellan MapSend® software products. A clear advantage over the competition, SporTrak Color also offers a built-in barometer, giving you an advance on the weather and an innovative 3-axis compass for superior navigational accuracy no matter how you hold it. Built tough, SporTrak Color is waterproof and rugged enough to go with you on any adventure.
The features of the SporTrak Color give you all of the great advantages of GPS navigation in a full-color, compact, lightweight, rugged package:
Full Color
See where you are and where you’re going in vivid color on a large 240 x 160 pixel, high contrast, full-color display. Color enables you to easily see your location and route, and to easily differentiate between roads, interstates, parks, waterways, airports and other Points of Interest at a glance.
Barometer
Like carrying your own little weather station, there’s no need to worry about what might be rolling in.
3-Axis Compass
A clear advantage over the competition, SporTrak Color offers an innovative 3-axis compass which orients no matter how it’s held, providing added confidence. You don’t need to hold the unit level like a compass or a 2-axis electronic compass (found in many GPS devices), to get an accurate reading. Hold it naturally.
Accurate
The SporTrak Color uses WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System) and the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay System (EGNOS) to provide the maximum GPS accuracy and reliability available. Tracking up to 12 satellites to locate your position to within 3 meters, you can rest assured that with the SporTrak Color, you will know where you are.
