Geocaching is a treasure hunting game where you use a GPS receiver/device to hide and seek containers with other participants in the activity. The basic idea is to have individuals and organizations set up caches all over the world and share the locations of these caches on the internet. GPS users can then use the location coordinates to find the caches. Once found, a cache may provide the visitor with a wide variety of rewards. All the visitor is asked to do is if they get something they should try to leave something for the cache.
The Trimble Geocache Navigator is a fully featured geocaching application for Nokia S60 3rd Edition mobile devices. It is linked directly to Geocaching.com’s cache listings and provides you with real-time access to caches near your location.
