Description
PocketSlots is a compact mapping tool designed for those who want maximum precision when navigating using maps. The transparent overlay is placed directly on top of the map’s UTM grid, making it easy to read and mark UTM coordinates with very high accuracy. On 1:25,000 -scale maps, coordinates can be determined with up to 10 meters of precision, while it also works excellently on 1:50,000-scale maps with up to 20 meters of precision.
The built-in compass rose in degrees makes it easy to measure or plot a compass bearing directly on the map, allowing PocketSlots to combine several essential navigation tools into one compact solution. Its small size means the tool easily fits in your pocket, map case, or backpack, so it’s always available when you need it.
PocketSlots is made of durable, transparent plastic, about as thick as a credit card. The white border makes the degree scale and coordinates easier to read, while also ensuring the tool stands out clearly against the map. A convenient hole makes it easy to attach PocketSlots to a lanyard or carabiner.
For anyone looking for maximum precision on a hike, PocketSlots is a natural complement to maps, compasses, and GPS. This tool is suitable for experienced outdoor enthusiasts, rescue services, orienteers, and others who work with maps and navigation in the field.
