Procedures and Precedence

It seems like too often I have to question GITI in some way. Sometimes it is in the form of the amount of time I have to spend directly modifying the database, other times it is in the lack of a coherent user experience. The most recent situation of this was this morning when several […]

Tracklog Workflow

I am trying to find ways to shorten my GPS workflow by a bit. I use a GisTeq CD-110B tracklog recorder, and it writes a new log every time it powers up or down, which can create a lot of logs since the thing powers down after 15 minutes of inactivity and powers up when […]

Bags, Bags, and More Bags

Arrival of a System

I could barely stay in bed this morning. I had nothing planned for the day, except to receive a package from FedEx, I guess I was worried that FedEx would want a signature for the package. Found out when they left I, they were just going to leave it anyway. The driver thought it was […]
