The GPSMAP 62 features a 2.6-inch sunlight-readable colour screen with built-in worldwide basemap with shaded relief, so you can navigate anywhere with ease.

With a quad helix antenna and high-sensitivity, WAAS/EGNOS enabled GPS receiver with HotFix satellite prediction, the GPSMAP 62 has unparalleled reception to locate your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep valleys. The advantage is clear - whether you're in deep woods or just near tall buildings and trees, you can count on GPSMAP 62 to help you find your way when you need it the most.

With space to store up to 2000 waypoints and 200 routes, GPSMAP 62's detailed route planning and tracking helps you navigate from point-to-point and keep track of your journey as you go. As you navigate to a destination on an active track, you can view upcoming elevation changes together with waypoints and key stages along the route for a clear picture of the journey ahead. And with a customisable display, you can tailor GPSMAP 62's dashboard to show you the details you need.

With a simple connection to your computer and to the Internet, you can get a detailed analysis of your activities. Activities can be viewed on Google Earth, and even shared via Twitter and Facebook. The GPSMAP 62 supports geocaching GPX files for downloading geocaches and details straight to your unit. By going paperless, you're not only helping the environment but saving time you would otherwise waste manually entering cache details before you set off. GPSMAP 62 stores and displays key information, including location, terrain, difficulty, hints and descriptions, which means no more manually entering coordinates or paper print outs! Simply upload the GPX file to your unit and start hunting for caches. Slim and lightweight, the GPAMAP 62 is the perfect companion for all your outdoor pursuits.

This great GPS unit is also available as a bundle with the BirdsEye Select retail card which allows download of 600 square kilometer OS GB map.
