Hey everyone I'm hoping to get pointed in the right direction here. I work EMS in a super remote location with roads that aren't typically mapped out. I respond to calls using long/lat and not addresses. I am looking for a GPS system that can plot long/lat and give me a general direction, provide topography on the ground so I can see low spots and what not at night to set up a safe landing zone. Wind direction and weather. Satellite imaging would be awesome. If there is a system that allows me to save locations and what not so that I can return in the future
Any ideas? Preferably a vehicle mounted system but if it must be portable handheld that is fine too. Apologies if I have put this in the wrong forum area. Hope you are all having a good day.
