The Guide Mate software provides an affordable guidance solution for growers.

 

/ products / Misc Images / GM with Hand (300x300).jpg Guide Mate requires a 5Hz GPS receiver or better and will install on popular mobile computers such as Pocket PCs, Windows® CE handhelds, tablet computers, or laptops running Windows 2000 and higher (including XP, Vista, and 7).
 
The Guide Mate software is your answer to reducing overlap and eliminating skips in a field.  The "3D Highway" display reduces driver fatigue and allows you to concentrate on other important jobs in the cab.  A unique feature of Guide Mate is the integration with Site Mate and Trac Mate.  These other field solutions provide additional functionality such viewing coverage maps, marking flags, and entering field records.  No other guidance software on the market offers this type of flexibility and integration.   

Guide Mate is the perfect solution for integrated guidance and mapping.
