Navigation capabilities

This software offers a chartplotter capable of handling both GPS data and electronic navigational charts. It displays the ENC alongside the position, heading, and speed of the ship. You can also view additional information sourced from radar, AIS systems, and other sensors, such as echolocators or sonar.

What is more, you have access to route calculation and directions. This is based on a vector map, typically designed for motorized vehicles. The graphical interface has a picture in the background, illustrating the traveled path and allowing preprogramming of routes.

Charts and conclusion
