Track: New Technology and Technology Integration
Author(s): Jason Hill, Andrew Harrington

ArcPad users recognize the integration of GPS technology with ArcPad as being both useful and beneficial to the operation of numerous activities. The integration of GPS has not always been straightforward and easy, with the need to ensure settings are made precisely for communication between the GPS receiver and ArcPad to occur correctly. However, new functionality within ArcPad 6 has just made GPS integration and use significantly easier and more robust. This paper describes GPS-related operations that are now possible within ArcPad 6, with particular emphasis on the operation and use of Trimble's GPS PathfinderT and range of GPS receivers within ArcPad.
