I am looking to open a expedition-type tour company here on Maui and the Big Island. Some will be guided, most will be self guided. As such, I need to map out places around the island in which my customers can access to camp safely.
I don't know a whole lot about GPS systems so I'm looking for a solution to the following problem.
So far I'm thinking that I need a GPS system that will...
1. Allow me to save points around my island and then be able to group them into easily searchable categories. (beach camp spots, woodsy camp spots, potable water sources, etc.)
2. Allow me to show a path/trail that I created on the display. This is important since most of these places are well off the beaten path and known only to us locals. (ie no map now would ever show it)
What should I begin to look for?
My goal is to use an iPad in each vehicle. The user interface has to be easy and something that we could teach customers in a 15 minute or so tutorial. Ultimately, I'd like to be able to have pictures of each area as "pop ups" to let customer decide if that's where they want to head or not.
