Garmin SatIQ

What is SatIQ?

• Garmin SatIQ satellite technology is a GPS technology that determines the optimal GPS mode based on your environment.
• SatIQ can determine when multi-band GNSS is needed, like near tall buildings or in a dense forest, or when a low power GPS mode can achieve the same accuracy, like in more open areas.
• By choosing Auto Select in the satellite setting menu on your device, SatIQ can automatically toggle between GPS modes in order to maximize battery life without compromising positional accuracy.
