To be clear, Tacktick would be "integrated", as it calculates
information such as true wind angle & true windspeed from apparent
boat speed, apparent wind angle, and apparent wind speed.
Velocitek is not integrated, as it only recieves information from the
GPS and does its calculations without further input (well, user input
only). I'm not familiar with Rockbox, but it sounds the same.
Instruments on board can tell you:
boatspeed
apparent wind angle
apparent wind speed
heading
depth
GPS information and anything computed within a single device
(location, SOG, computed distance, etc). Plugging a GPS into any
other device to get results would not be allowed.
I think that's it, but I may have missed some...
As Will says, if you buy an integrated system, you are on the honor
system not to use anything but the information listed above.
