Geodesy GPS Speedtrap
Warning Device
By Road Pilot
As approved on Television by Quentin
Wilson.
The Geodesy was a revolution in speedtrap
location, relying on GPS technology to pinpoint the static speedtraps
rather than a Radar signal.
The Standard Geodesy Plus Kit.
The manufacturers Morpheous ® (Now Road Pilot) have put
together a very comprehensive standard kit. Kit may differ from
image as improvements are made.
For just £199.99 get the Geodesy
Plus with extra features.
Sorry,
this product is no longer available.
Extra features are :-
1. Speed Sensitivity: This allows the Geodesy
to remain silent if you are travelling within the speed limit
on that road. It will still give a visible warning but will
remain quiet and will not flash unless you exceed the speed
limit for that road.
2. Auto Ranging: This will decrease the chosen
range by 50% when the camera is in a 30mph or less zone, and
by 30% in a speed zone between 30mph and 50mph, and full range
when in a 60 or 70 mph Limit.
3. Awareness Beep: This feature gives you one
audible beep when the first indicator of the scale of ten is
illuminated. This will quickly alert you to coming into the
range of a designated location.
Morpheous employ a dedicated team to
make sure every fixed speed camera location goes on the database,
but with 25 new cameras being erected across the country every
week, sometimes you may see them before they do.
Overview
The Geodesy is supplied complete with a database of gatso and
other static speedtraps inbuilt into it's memory, this can be
updated as often as you wish with the custom made self dialling
modem, which simply plugs into your standard telephone line.

How It Works
Based on GPS (Global Positioning System / Satellites) technology,
the Geodesy will track at least 3 of the 24 satellites that
are orbiting the Earth. By doing this the inherent software
can work out it's exact position on the Earth's surface to within
a few metres. By referencing it's own position against the positions
of known static speedtraps it can activate the visual and audible
warning sequences when you come within the specified range of
a speedtrap. This means that it does not rely on a radar signal
to pick up a location making it far more reliable. It also means
that because it relies purely on Global Positioning it will
give a warning of speedtraps that are passive such as the new
SPECS or SVDD or Digital systems.
The Geodesy is easy and
ready to use from the box.
The Geodesy is dispatched from the factory with a range of default
settings, these should be fine to get started and will give
ample warning of speedtrap locations, the settings include volume,
range, brightness, sound tone.
So when you receive the box you can simply take it out of the
box plug the cable into your car cigarette lighter socket, insert
the Geodesy and away you go. Once you have become accustomed
to it's use you can have the settings changed to how you prefer,
just by telephoning or emailing back to base and requesting
the settings to be changed. This will allow optimum performance
for your own driving style and conditions.
The Geodesy is versatile
and robust.
It comes complete with 1 power clip for a car cigarette lighter
which could also be used for direct wiring into the electrics.
This allows multiple use of one Geodesy into many vehicles.
It is water resistant, shock resistant, and vibration resistant
and so is designed to be able to be used on a motorcycle or
in a car, you can move it between either easily. It's size is
also a determining factor in it's ease of portability, about
the size and weight of a pack of cards it can slip into a pocket
discreetly and easily.

First Beep - This will give a short audible warning when
the first light is luminated indicating that a speedtrap is
within the set range.
Speed Sensitivity - This will alter the Geodesy to only
give an audible warning if the speed limit is being exceeded.
Visual warnings will still be given but will remain constant
rather than flashing.
Auto Ranging - If the speedtrap is wihin a 50mph limit
or less the range will be reduced automatically by 30%, and
by 50% if the speedtrap is in a 30mph area or less.
