4. Logging New GPS/GIS Data
By now your receiver should be tracking a number of GPS sat-
ellites and you can begin logging data. You can verify this by
pressing the NAV button and looking for a "You Are Here" tri-
angle symbol in the middle of the Map screen. You may need
to press this button repeatedly before you get to the Map
screen because it is one of 7 navigation screens that you can
use. Another of these screens is the GPS Status screen that
shows which satellites the receiver is tracking and where they
are located in the sky. If you are not tracking 3 or more satel-
lites you may have to move to a more open area.
But first make sure that you are not blocking the receiver's
"view" of the sky with your body or some obstruction.
Regardless of which screen you are on, you simply press the
LOG button to begin recording positions and GIS feature de-
scriptions:
- Press the LOG button
If you are not already logging data to a GIS job, pressing
the LOG button will give you two options:
• Create a new job
• Open an existing job.
You can open an existing job so you can verify the accu-
racy of the data, or add more data to it. You can also open
a new job.
For the purpose of quickly learning how to operate the
MobileMapper Pro system, highlight the Create new job
option and press ENTER.
- Name the job
The name of a MobileMapper Pro job can be any combina-
tion of up to eight letters and/or numbers. For the pur-
poses of this exercise you might want to type in the first
four letters of your name and use four numbers to indicate
today's date. Use the arrow button to highlight the letters
or numbers you want to use to name the job. Press ENTER
to select each character.
