Garmin G-60C Accuracy as Compared to the Mgellan SporTrak Color -Under Moderate Tree Cover
NOTE: These tests are with static conditions.  For a dynamic test see (HERE)

                       95% accuracy           Average accuracy      Drift/Min
             G-60C        6.1m                    1.6m               16m
             ST-Color     2.6m                    1.2m                1m

Waypoint Averaging

There is also a manual way to determine accuracy of a marked and saved waypoint (which has been averaged for better accuracy.)  Garmin units have a waypoint averaging option, while Magellan units do 'automatic averaging' when not moving.

The below tests were about 5 minutes of simultaneous averaging (about the practical limit of someone trying refine a bearing and distance to a geocache).  The ST Color's automatic averaging was broken by rapid movement before averaging.  The Garmin waypoints were averaged, while the ST Color waypoint were just saved.

Conditions:
# The test point is under moderate tree cover, and is about 1 m accurate.
* The test point is in the clear, and is about 5 cm accurate.
% As measured with G7ToWin by making the test points, the waypoint list "reference points".

The 60C "Measurement Count" remained at 0.  Upgrading to Ver. 3.10 fixes this.
