Guide to Portable GPS Units

Arrive at the right location with the help of portable GPS units


Portable GPS units let you get on-the-spot latitude and longitude readings whenever you need them. They will also help you to navigate in unfamiliar areas. GPS is a satellite-based positioning system, consisting of 24 satellites that orbit the earth every 12 hours. These satellites are constantly transmitting radio signals toward the Earth.

Tapping into these signals with portable GPS units will help your business to run more efficiently. You will be able to find the quickest route to your destination or store the locations of potential expansion sites.

Use the following to find the portable GPS units your business needs:

1. Purchase handheld models from a portable GPS units provider.

2. Work with a retailer to find portable GPS units that come as backpack units.

3. Equip your company vehicles with portable GPS units for cars and trucks.

Action Steps

The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Navtech GPS offers differential backpack GPS units. You can choose the brand of GPS receiver you want incorporated into the system.

Ensure your vehicles get you where you need to be by equipping them with portable GPS units Portable GPS units can help to ensure that a delivery gets to the right location at the right time, or that you make it to an important meeting in an unfamiliar city.

Tips & Tactics

Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide
  • Not all portable GPS units are the same. There is a range in prices, and you often get what you pay for. There is even a range in how accurately each unit locates your position on the Earth. The higher priced models usually offer better positional accuracy or additional features. Before purchasing any portable GPS units, compare a variety of models.
