    Patent number: 6459372
    Abstract: A device that monitors a person's location and compares it to a database of fish and game regulations for a given area. The user can verify position, but can also display fish and game regulations that apply in that area. Moreover, the unit can also monitor the user's position with respect to boundaries. If the user crosses into another area, the unit can alert the user of this and the user can then discover the rules for the area and if necessary, leave the area. In this way, hunters and fishers can now travel through the back country confident that they always know the regulations and boundaries of the areas that they occupy.
