Pro Compass
|
DescriptionPro Compass is the latest app from Hunter Research and Technology, developer of the popular Theodolite app series. Pro Compass replicates the look and feel of classic pocket compass hardware in use since the 1800s, adding modern features and technologies. The app uses advanced OpenGL graphics (normally reserved for games) to render 3D floating compass hardware for realistic operation.Pro Compass offers nine different compass modes with needle, pointer, and rosette styles capable of displaying degrees, quads, or mils. The needle mode shows a proper "direct read" display with a North-South needle and reversed East-West convention. In all display modes, Pro Compass shows both magnetic and true direction simultaneously, with a rotating outer true ring that is automatically adjusted for local magnetic declination. Pro Compass displays location and altitude, with decimal, degree-minute-second, and MGRS position formats. The app also contains a built in two-axis inclinometer that drives two independent bubble levels and a bullseye level. The inclinometer has angle readout dials for each axis, making it useful for many different types of measurements including slopes, pitches, sight lines, and geological angles like dip and strike.

Customer ReviewsVery well done! (4 stars)I really like this application. For the 5th star, consider adding UTM coordinates, and ability to copy the readings to the clipboard. I would love to be able to paste them into Filemaker Go. Great (5 stars) One of the best compasses on the app store it would be nice if the needle was red for north black for south and have the ability to open theodolite at the touch of a button for photos of the area. Excellent (5 stars) The best of many nav apps I have tried. If you have wifi it will get you there with ease, otherwise you still have the compass.
