U-2 Training
"As a civilian navigator instructor for newly assigned U-2
student pilots, I want to compliment Fugawi for their extraordinary
moving map software. We use it as a training tool for actual U-2
training flights and it's use has had a very positive impact on
our training. It has saved tax dollars and greatly enhanced training.
It's ease of use and flexibility, especially with the new version
makes it an excellent tool with many applications."

Alligator Business
A Louisiana company is the business of alligator farming. They fly over
the bayou with a GPS receiver. When they see an alligator nest, they mark
the spot with a waypoint on the GPS. Back at the base they download the
waypoints to Fugawi and view the positions on a USGS topographic map.
Sections of the map are then printed and handed to someone who goes out
to the nest and removes some eggs. Here at Fugawi we are wondering: where
is the mother alligator during this part of the operation?
Tornado Chasing
An Oklahoma customer is using Fugawi Tracker™ Ver. 4 to track
tornados. Two radar-equipped vehicles chase storms under the direction
of a mobile base station. The positions of the chase vehicles are
broadcast via radio to a mobile base station. The base station operator
can observe their position on the map along with the positions of
the radar vehicles. Fugawi Tracker allows optimal positioning of
the vehicles relative to the storm.
