Prepare your navigation and your landings : includes GSHHS shore lines, major lighthouses, GPS, AIS, magnetic variation, position of Sun and Moon, logbook.
Note : AIS display requires an AIS/Wifi gateway
-------
AIS : AtoN, MOB, ships
-------
WayPoints
-------
Also embedded are the USCG database and NGA database of all marine lights around the world, that have a nominal range of 10 or more Nautical Miles.
IMPORTANTE NOTICE : Mariners should consult all sources of information they have before engaging their vessel to an unkwnow area, in particular notices to mariners.
NOTICE : NGA and USCG lights databases have been extracted in Feb 2013. This application will be updated in a regular basis.
-------
All major ligthhouses (landing) that have a distance at least 15 NM for the following countries :
Full world coverage.
--------
- based on the NOAA's GSHHS Shoreline Database Version 2.2.0
- world coverage from 75°S to 75°N (poles excluded)
- zoom in and zoom out : automatically selects between the 5 GSHHS databases : full, high, intermediate, low, crude
- mercator projection
- Precise positioning of your boat and other vessels (NMEA GPS and AIS frames)
- you need a NMEA Wifi connection (TCP or UDP) with a NMEA repeater like Digital Yacht's iAIS
- log book (date,time,latitude,longitude,COG,SOG,Heading,Log,Water Depth,
TWA,TWS,Leeway,Stream Set, Stream Drift and your comments
- log book organized in passages
- log book export via email (csv format)
- NMEA protocol debug window
- magnetic variation computed with the algorithms from the NOAA's World Magnetic Model
- distance to coast
- distance to others vessels
- 'goto boat' function
- double tap for full screen display
- integrated solar compass : the rose displays the sun and moon positions in real time
