Ladies and Gentlemen: FIRST, SORRY FOR ANY DOUBLE POSTING. IT WAS NOT INTENDED!
Spring is here! It has been a long winter! Are you Looking for that perfect opportunity to get up to speed with mapping GPS before your SUMMER field seasons hit? Here it is! I would like to invite you to consider participating in the following Certified User Mapping GPS Workshop: 19 - 21 MAY 2010. Each workshop is a total immersion 3-day workshop titled: INTRODUCTION TO GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEMS FOR MAPPING AND NAVIGATION. Each workshop is limited to a maximum of 10 participants to insure quality instruction and lots of personal attention! These courses generally fill quickly, so if you are interested, please reserve your place as soon as possible. You may secure your reservation prior to payment, but arrangements for payment must be made by the time the session begins. SCOPE OF COURSE: This is an intro (but intense) course to mapping GPS with no prior experience in GPS required or expected. But you'll definitely be a GIS mapping-level GPS power tool when you're finished with this workshop! We will train on TRIMBLE GEO XH mobile GIS GPS units with TERRASYNC PRO, and we will use PATHFINDER OFFICE integration software. We will also learn to use bluetooth wireless communication, WAAS real-time differential, Coast Guard Beacon real-time differential. These courses are taught by an experienced manufacturer Certified Trainer (me; Trimble Navigation, LTD).
