AvMap is a navigation company established in 1994 based in Italy. AVMap is a division of C-Map, a name that will be very familiar if you know anything about marine navigation.
AvMap started in the Aeronautical navigation field and has now branched out in to the street navigation market with the GeoSat2, and GeoSat2C.
The AvMap GeoSat2 is a new entry in the GPS navigation marketplace . It is a dedicated navigation device based on Teleatlas mapping data. It's main claim to fame is a massive 5.6 inch LCD screen.
The AvMap GeoSat2 is a complete navigation package in a box. It comes complete with maps of your region and is ready to plug in and go. It also gives you turn by turn voice instructions.
The system unit is 6 inches wide, 4.25 inches high and 1 inch deep. It is powered by an Arm9 200Mhz processor and has a 320 x 240 5.6 inch TFT screen. AvMap claim that the display is readable in the sunlight, and I must say that I never experienced any issues during my testing.
The AvMap GeoSat2 is a Satellite Navigation system built on the pedigree of C-Map a respected name in marine navigation. This machine has a great display, and was reliable and accurate during my testing. The mapping data is somewhat out of date and will cause some issues with the M6 toll road not being included. I assume this will be remedied in later releases.
On the whole I found the entry system to be a little too fiddly for me. I suspect that this is mainly due to the fact that I am used to touch screens or keyboards. I have similar usability issues with other GPS devices with just buttons for input.
