Where Am I?
- Use the Satellite application to view:
- View detailed satellite information remotely with
Satellite dashboard.
Satellite Information
- There's more information available on the Satellite page beyond current location, accuracy and elevation.
Satellite Map
- Determine satellite location relative to your current position:

-
Zenith: Satellites located directly overhead provide better accuracy when calculating vertical position.
-
Elevation: Most visible satellites are found midway in the sky and are best used to determine horizontal position.
-
Horizon: Satellites near the horizon are more sensitive to geographic obstructions and therefore less reliable.
-
[Track Up] The compass will function normally with the current heading centered at the top of the screen.
-
[North Up] The traditional compass is locked 'north up' with
serving as a dynamic heading indicator.
Signal Strength
- Satellite signal acquisition sequence and signal:noise ratio status:
