2 hours to map out key features of Roehampton University grounds (Physical and Human geography)

What is a GPS navigator? It is a digital compass. A GPS navigator communicates with the satellites to tell you exactly where you are (using co ordinates). They can also tell you where you need to go, by having co ordinates already programmed into them. Super clever! You will learn how to use them on our CREATIVE MAPPING CHALLENGE

But first, here is your challenge! You will be using GPS navigators to guide you to seven different locations in the Roehampton University grounds When you get to each location, you will need to complete a mini task While walking the grounds, you will also need to work as a team to construct an accurate OS map, using agreed symbols A WINNING MAP WILL BE CHOSEN FOR ITS ACCURACY

What will you have in your pack? A GPS navigator A clipboard with a template map of the grounds A task card Pencils and rubber Your teacher will have the trail leader’s number to call for assistance. But remember – problem solving and teamwork are key aspects of the challenge!

Before your arrival, you need to be clear about How to use the GPS navigators How to construct a basic OS map …So listen carefully! These next few moments are SUPER IMPORTANT!!!

Your OS mapping tips 1.An OS map is a survey map that uses AGREED symbols 2.We try to be super accurate with our positioning and size 3.We use the compass and GPS to orientate ourselves As you move through the grounds, look out for features that are already on your map. Then you will be able work out where to mark in your features Using the following symbol

These are your symbols You will have them on the back of your task card

How to use your GPS unit

Your locations (waypoints) are called RU 1 RU2 RU3 RU4 RU5 RU6 RU7 You can go to each location in which ever order you wish! When you program a location in, it will direct you there, using an arrow. Distance to location Compass and arrow

Operating the GPS 1. Press the PAGE button until you see the MENU screen 2. Scroll down until you highlight WAYPOINTS 3. Click OK on waypoints and then scroll down to U-Z 4. Then click OK. You can then Choose a waypoint e.g – RU2 Click on it, then click OK and OK again!

DON’T PANIC! We will explain in more detail on Thursday Just remember -You are using GPS units and mapping symbols to construct an OS map of the university grounds -You are working as a team to come up with the most accurate map -You will have loads of fun and learn valuable fieldwork skills See you at 12:30! May the best map win!
