USING GPS AND GIS TO ENHANCE PERFORMANCE OF A PORTABLE TELEMETRY SYSTEM

Global Positioning System (GPS) and Geographical Information System (GIS) can assist with triangulation as a means of re-locating radio tagged animals. Locations of twenty five moose (Alces alces) fitted with radio telemetry collars were monitored using truck mounted telemetry equipment, GPS receive...
