Guide Mate
On-Screen Lightbar Guidance for Pocket PCs
 The
guidance, or Guide Mate, module of Farm Works Software adds an on-screen light-bar
to Farm Site Mate. Guide Mate is the first product
to provide an affordable guidance solution that works on industry standard Pocket
PCs. It was developed by Raven Industries based on years of experience in the
GPS guidance market. Guide Mate provides an easy-to-follow, on-screen light-bar
and steering needle. It is fully integrated with Site Mate Basic so users can quickly
flip between the light-bar display of Guide Mate and a coverage map generated
with Site Mate. You can also drop flags and calculated acres covered for spray
applications. Try the online Guide
Mate demo to see how the features work.
