Digital ChartKits on CD-Rom - West Coast MapTech digital ChartKits represent the next generation of digital cartography and cruise planning. These regional collections of digital nautical charts, navigation aids and planning software allow you to stay a step ahead. U.S., Maptech charts have the same high level of detail as NOAA paper charts. NOAA is the national hydrographic office of the United States and Maptech is the only company that produces "NOAA Certified" digital charts. Outside the U.S., Maptech offers digital charts in partnership with leading hydrographic offices and private cartographers around the world.Maptech Digital ChartKits utilize overhead navigation photos to match chart positions exactly and provide you with a useful aid in understanding charts. You can view them full-screen or side-by-side with charts. In addition, full-color pictures of harbors, approaches and key coastal locations are a useful aid for approaching new areas. The contiguous USGS topographic map coverage provides detail from the water's edge to five miles inland for the explorer in you. And, with a digital ChartKit you can finally win the battle of the tides. Current arrows overlay on top of charts to show set and drift. Plus, you can click on tide and current icons to view graphs of present conditions and predicted future conditions.Digital ChartKits are chock-full of additional information. If you are ever confused by the marks on a chart, Symbols and Abbreviations help is included. Most regions include Coast Pilots, Light Lists, and a facilities database as further aids to planning and navigation. On top of that, MapTech included their Chart Navigator software to help you view everything and plan your routes. Route planning is as simple as clicking a mouse. Click - and you've put the first waypoint on the chart. Click again - and you're creating a route. It's that easy! Once you have finished planning your trip, you can print route plans, current and tide graphs, and chart packets on standard color or black and white printers. Of course, the Chart Navigator software also lets you transfer your waypoints directly from your PC into popular GPS receivers. Say goodbye to the task of keying waypoints in one by one.
