James Associates updates MacGPS Pro

James Associates Inc. is proud to announce the release of MacGPS Pro
version 8.7. Here are some of the new features we have added:

* Support for the Garmin GPSMap 62 and GPSMap 78 receivers.

* Easier Route Creation and Editing.

* Print maps showing the Datum and Map Projection.

* Store the Auto-Open Maps folder/DEM files anywhere, such as an
external drive.

* Open ECW files that use the French NTF Lambert II Étendue map
projection.

* Use False Northing and False Easting with the Lambert Conformal Conic
Maps.

* Show the UTM Zone in the map window title when using an UTM map.

* Open more maps with automatic georeferencing.

* Switch map projections while transferring waypoints, if they fall
outside of the original map projection choice.

This is a free update for version 8 customers who will be receiving an
email with update details.

Also, USGS 24K topo maps are currently available as downloads from our
web site in sections which cover part of a state. These files are about
1 GByte in size for faster and more-economical downloads.

MacGPS Pro is the ultimate software program for linking your Mac with
GPS receivers and viewing your position on a wide variety of moving
digital maps and charts. Its support of open-standard format maps and
charts, as well as scan-your-own maps, gives you great flexibility. It
connects to NMEA 0183 real-time data from Serial port, Bluetooth, and
USGlobalSat USB receivers. Waypoints, Routes, and Tracks can be
graphically generated and edited for use on the Mac, or for transfer to
and from many Garmin and Magellan receivers.
