If you are an ecology professional and need to cover large areas and/or track your device locations then this GPS by Garmin will be for you. You can use a single GPS accessory to set the date, time, and location settings of multiple recorders.

These GPS units have been customised so that they are compatible with Wildlife Acoustics Song Meter SM3 and SM3BAT recorders. They can log location information and synchronise multiple device clocks. 

Key Features:

  • Can synchronise recordings to the GPS clock to within one millisecond
  • Able to triangulate the location of a sound source using an array of multiple SM3 and SM3BAT recorders as analysed by third-party software
  • Has a high-sensitivity 12-channel receiver, integrated antenna, and rugged waterproof design.
  • WAAS-enabled, so it can determine your precise location to within 3 m without using an external DGPS beacon receiver.
