This USB memory stick sized unit is a fascinating pocket device with multiple commercial and personal uses for individual movement tracking. It’s very light, extremely easy to use and logs your route automatically. It also adds your GPS location to digital pictures. It then presents the route you’ve taken in 3D via Google Earth™ on your PC.
Example 1:
At the start of your walk, car or cycle ride turn on the G730 and when you finish your journey, turn it off. Once home plug the G730 into your PC, open the software, click on two icons and the route and pictures you have taken are viewed on Google earth/maps.
Example 2:
You work for a highways agency, and your job is to travel a highway, and note sections of road that are damaged and you need to log these for repair by a maintenance crew. You use the G730 to mark each damaged road section, then when to get back to the office you download all the information.
Example 3:
You run a fleet of vehicles, and there are problems with drivers not completing their rounds as quickly as they should, or perhaps too quickly (are they speeding?) If the G730 was placed in a vehicle and the data downloaded at the end of the day then you would be able to see the routes those vehicles took, what speed they travelled at, and where they stopped (did the driver go home for lunch when he should have been somewhere else?)
The G730 records your speed, altitude, distance etc., even showing how long you have stopped for during your journey. You can even use your digital images taken on route for future reference. How good is that!
Accuracy is to within 5 metres and you get up to 18 hours continuous use after a 2 hour charge via your USB port on your PC. Use the VENTUS GPS-logger for cycling, rambling, jogging, skiing, trekking, sailing etc.
