I have an older iPad without GPS. I also have a Garmin inReach mini and GAIA Gps installed on my ipad. I have a GAIA premium account if that matters. I can successfully connect my inReach to my iPad over bluetooth. My inReach mini indicates that it acquired a GPS signal. Last week while...

I should probably post this question on some tech forum, but I'm hoping that someone here may have an answer. I am preparing to purchase a Galaxy Tab A 8 to mount in my Jeep in order to run GAIA. There is a considerable difference in price if I buy a Wi-Fi only Tab A versus an LTE Tab A. The...

Let me start by saying I seriously love Gaia. I have a love affair with maps and Gaia unlocks that obsession. However, I'm a software developer and cloud architect by trade so I'm a bit persnickety when it comes to software usability and reliability. I use their web app for all my research and...

I am fairly new to the whole Overlanding scene and was just using my phone's navigation with Google Maps a couple of weekends ago not expecting to lose connection as I was just in a slightly rural area of southern Wisconsin and I usually get good reception around there. But I lost connection and...

Friends, I am planning a trip in a couple of days I was wondering which layers do you use to ensure you are camping in a permitted area. Found the Public Lands overlay but unsure based on this where it is OK from me to crash for the night: I am guessing that it is OK to do so in Red and...

Hello, Is there a good way to post/share Gaia routes to forums or websites such as on Overland Bound facebook page or rally points? Thanks

I'm looking at a GPS system for an overland trip next summer. I've got around $200 to spend on this. Any of y'all have any suggestions? (I'll have the GAIA app but I need a GPS unit other than my phone.)

Hello all, I'm new to overlanding and am based out of Northern Virginia so I spend a lot of time in the Blue Ridge Mountains, the George Washington and Thomas Jefferson National Forests, West Virginia, etc. Before I got interested in overlanding, I usually just spent my time on the traditional...

I'm new to using the GAIA app but was playing with it today while on an airplane from San Jose to LA. I thought it was supposed to be able to use the GPS even without cell service to track a route. I started recording a track during take off in San Jose. My location icon didn't move from San...

Sorry if this has been covered before and I missed it. I've spent most of the afternoon (its been a slow day here at work) searching and browsing threads until I'm almost cross-eyed, but haven't found anything, so like the title says, is anyone running Gaia on a Windows based tablet? I...

So there are many Geospatial Information Systems (GIS) on the market for the outdoor enthusiast. They all have varying degrees of usability, ease of use, and features. I was curious which ones were most popular among Overlanders. Personally, I love Google Earth. I’ve used it for years in the...
