GlobalSync software brings GeoTagging to Mac Users

title

The recently launched GlobalSync software brings seamless DataLogger use to Mac users for the first time. Definitely well worth an upgrade from plain receivers, especially the older 12-channel types; the BT-335 acts as a GPS Receiver and/or as a DataLogger. GlobalSync, written by RouteBuddy under contract for www.usglobalsat.com, makes it easy for GeoTagging by photographers as well as recording TrackLogs for business and personal use.
