“How do I use the polygon filter in GSAK?”

“Where can I download Garmin maps and load them onto my GPS?”

“What is Basecamp?”

“Is there a GSAK like tool for the Mac?”

“I’ve heard you can automate your logging for big cache runs. How do I do that?”

“How can I run pocket queries to get caches for the entire province?”

“How do I add a ‘next stage’ to a cache in the iPhone geocaching app?”

“How do I make HTML links or images in my cache listings?”

These are just a few sample questions that can be answered at the Learning Lab during the M3 mega on August 1st.

The Learning Lab is a room at the mega set up with computers, tablets, and mobile devices all loaded with the geocaching software and websites many of us use on a daily basis.

The idea is that you may have questions about how to use a particular device, access a piece of software, how to use your premium membership, or any other “technology” related questions that don’t necessarily fit into one of our seminars.

Anyone can come into the Learning Lab, and immediately have someone there who can either answer your question directly, or have them find someone who can help you.

So whether it’s GSAK, Basecamp, Mapsource, c:geo, Google Earth, or any of the geocaching related websites, all of the questions you might have can be answered in the learning lab.

Plus, as an added bonus, if you visit the Learning Lab during the mega, you will be able to claim a Lab Cache for your attendance.
