(900,000 board feet) in Oregon:
· Mature and high density Douglas Fir trees
on 40 acres
· Wet ground and wet trees in December 2006
· Most GPS would fail under such heavy canopy
· Built-in GPS still performed very well

· Consistent tracking even under heavy
canopy
· PDA survived harsh conditions

· Optional waterproof case available

Optional software installation available: CE Surveyor III or CE-Cruise
