Welcome to gpsShop
We sold our first GPS rig in 1992. That
means we have over 20 years of experience in this field.
How many other current retailers of GPS units can say
that?
It was called a Pronav 100 and retailed
for around $4200 Australian. A large heavy unit with a big
lithium battery it required an external antenna and could
also run from an external 12 volt power supply. The
company originally targeted aeronautical and marine
enthusiasts as GPS for hikers or cars was still in the
future.
They changed their name to Garmin in the
early to mid 1990s and today we continue to sell their
products and others. We have GPS units for hikers,
4WDrivers, in car navigation as well as other specialist
types including trackers and usb "mouse" antennas. We have
even developed our own product, the Seeka.
A GPS unit is one thing but to maximise
your GPS experience we also sell accessories including a
range of maps, data and software . Products for
pre-planning and tools for travel or field work.
If you find the whole GPS experience too
technical and a bit mystifying you should know we also run
courses that help you get a good grip on the GPS as a
useful tool and some of the accessory software involved,
notably OziExplorer.
Finally, if all the above wasn't enough
we also sell the best backups a GPS user can have; maps on
paper, travel atlases and map books. Detailed topographic
maps and generalised tourist maps. We even sell magnetic
compasses. We are part of The Map Shop, the largest
map shop in Australia.
