Great news from Navionics

Post by wallyandre »

Great news for the guys that want to look at the water they are going to fish or if you want to compare from one to the other.

Don't forget to zoom in to 500m (rule on the bottom right) then once at 500 click on the blue icon on the bottom left of the screen to get the sonar chart view.

This is great!

Didn't they do this once before a couple years ago, albeit without the sonar, and the Feds made them take it off their website. Do they own their own maps now so they can post online? Pretty sweet indeed though. Thanks for sharing.

At this moment it's a limited "free" thing. Numbers are meter and can't be change to feet. There is around 1ft by contour line

It'a written in Meters and Decimeters (10cm)

They didn't use decimal places because it would be too hard to read / see. Instead they offset the Leading Digit (meters) from the trailing digit with is decimeters (10cm)

Code: Select all

2m
  4dm  (40cm)
It's weird but works.

As the numbers are labeled they are in 30cm or rather 3decimeter intervals which is about a foot as MM notes above.

Pretty damn cool for *Free* wonder how long it will last.

Is the whole website down now? All I get is a search page when I go to the link.
