Keep a satellite record of your travels


8 October 2007 18:11 GMT / By Amy-Mae Elliott

The Trackstick II lets you keep a satellite scrapbook of all your travels and record your explorations.

The little device will work anywhere on the planet. Using the latest in GPS mapping technologies from Google Earth, your exact location can be shown on satellite-based maps and 3D geographical terrain.

This device is powered by two AAA batteries. Proprietary low power GPS technology will keep the Trackstick II running for up to a week while 1MB memory will log weeks or even months of travel histories, depending on how often you set it to record a reading.

All of the information can be downloaded to your computer via the USB port and quickly viewed on Google Earth’s 3D model of the planet.

No monthly fees are required and all software needed to run Trackstick II's technology is included.

With the detachable belt clip, Trackstick II can be hooked on a belt, put in a bag or "purse" - or - alternatively, covertly installed and placed on anything that moves.
