Accuracy GPS

[padpad]

Hi,
I have a strange problem. I have a GPS "mouse" laptop gps reciver and 2 weeks ago it became inaccurate. I have tried several pieces of mapping software and 2 different laptops so its definatly the reciever. How is this possible ? , can you calibrate them ?

Basically its about 1/2 a mile out to the left ..in Autoroute 2006 , Infomap navigator , infact any software....

Any ideas ?

THanks

Incorrect map datum? It must be WGS84.

Ok so how do I change \ check it ? ,

Thanks ,

That's the hard bit! Download Winfast Navigator - I think you can do it from there, but I've never personally done it. Perhaps someone else can advise... Lutz, perhaps?

ive just been supplied with NCLITE and this reads the datum setting. Its showing WGS84 ... which is correct for autoroute. Is it worth changing it and then resetting back ?

Thanks for supplying this software works a treat now, 100% accurate thanks guys.
