GPSacreage
Want an easy way to export the GPS data to your PC? The PDB files where
GPSacreage saves the tract data is backed up on your PC each time you make a
Hotsync. Now you can use another PC based application by the same developer to
convert those backup PDB files to ascii text format. It makes it possible to use
GPSacreage now also as GPS datalogger. Read more about it in the updated
documentation. Furthermore a new included program allows you to export the
files to ESRI shapefile format.
The program now supports the Garmin iQue 3600. This excellent device has a
built-in GPS which makes it an ideal host for GPSacreage. The software will
automatically detect that your device is a Garmin iQue and it will use the
built-in GPS. If the program is run on any other PDA device, then the program
will still look for the GPS on the serial port.

- Acres
- Hectare

- If you do not own a GPS you can also read the co-ordinates from a map and
enter it manually into GPS Acreage.
- A special included windows program that lets you convert your captures
track to ESRI Shapefile format so that you can view then in normal GIS
applications like Arcview and Arc Explorer.
