Cartography for Chartplotters

BACK

Exceptional charplotters deserve the best in cartography. Tht's why GARMIN has developed our own exclusive marine cartography, BlueChart, which works in seamless integration with the plotters you see here. These detailedelectronic nautical charts look just like paper charts when displayed on your GARMIN chartplotter. Detail includes spot soundings, intertidal zones, wrecks, port plans, restricted areas and more. BlueChart cartography is object-oriented, meaning you can pan to an object on the map and instantly view information about that point.

GARMIN serves up this additional cartography in two forms - preprogrammed micro data cards or MapSource CDs contain detailed maps that can be downloaded to blank data cards of directly to units that don't accepts data cards, such as the GPSMAP 162. A variety of CDs will offer detail that includes offshore cartography, fishing information, inland features, topographic maps, locations of services and attractions and much more.


With BlueChart cartography, map areas are shaded just like on paper charts, allowing you to instantly identify intertidal zones, depth contours and more.

The MapSource Fishing Hot Spot CD provides lake profiles and detailed fishing information.
