Early 90’s; the Gulf War (August 2, 1990 – February 28, 1991 per wiki) was also the really first full-scale use by the military ... consumer products followed ... had an early Magellan ‘94 that took awhile to initially acquire and only showed Lat/Long speed, COG (Course over Ground) and some waypoint functions (distance, bearing) ... but, of course, no map!
Resorted to a Delorme mapping program on a low-powered laptop receiving data from the GPS for the ‘moving map’ function.
