How to use your own GPS ratings


The navigation system market place can seem to be so packed with excellent products that it seems hard to actually come to any conclusion about which offers the best value for money, and so a system of GPS ratings is needed to try and make sense of it all. Like any system of measuring features against price, this will always be a very personal thing, and so it is a good idea to try and establish what kind of GPS ratings system you want to apply that will make sense for the application you want it for.

For example, if you are looking for a system that is going to spend its entire time sitting on your car dashboard, then the fact that the table of GPS ratings comparing like products has a space for waterproofing is not going to be of much use. So, it should receive an importance which is less than, for example, the inclusion of a color screen, voice prompting, and an accurate street plan.

In fact, when reading GPS ratings, you need to be aware that the weighting system that the reviewer has applied might not match with your needs at all, and so it is worth taking the time to recalculate the final score, based on your own needs, weighting the results accordingly.

So, you might choose to weight the scores according to a system which places GPS ratings such as price and portability above others like screen size and map memory space, and end up with a result for a navigation system which is vastly different from the opinion of the reviewer.
