Fly with the portable device of your choice and Garmin-caliber GPS data at the same time. GLO for Aviation combines GPS/GLONASS receivers with Bluetooth® technology so you can get precise position information on your iPad®, iPhone® or Android™device.
Enjoy the Accuracy of GPS + GLONASS
GLO for Aviation can receive position information from both the GPS and GLONASS satellite constellations, allowing it to connect to up to 24 more satellites than devices that rely on GPS alone. This allows GLO to lock on to satellites approximately 20% faster and keep up with even the most demanding jet speeds. What's more, GLO updates its position information 10x per second, up to 10x more often than the GPS receivers in many mobile devices. When you access geo-referenced charts, Garmin SafeTaxi or the moving map display in Garmin Pilot (6 months of which come free with your GLO purchase), you'll know that what you see is the most precise picture possible.
