MaxSea-NavNet PC software
Defining the cutting-edge of applied information technology,
MaxSea-NavNet software is a powerful navigation tool for
boaters who are looking for a user-friendly interface and
a more comprehensive navigation system.
MaxSea-NavNet software offers increased efficiency at sea
by using its exclusive capabilities, such as seamless chart
displays, advanced weather forecast overlay, real-time three
dimensional images of the seabed (Personal Bathymetric
Generator) and many more. Intuitive operation of MaxSea-
NavNet is achieved by its user-friendly interface and
graphical tool palette. MaxSea-NavNet presents
the ultimate solution to navigational data management.
Interface with the NavNet system
The MaxSea-NavNet software is capable of combining and
analyzing data from multiple sources in real-time. Fully
integrated into the NavNet system through a high-speed
Ethernet network, MaxSea-NavNet facilitates the complete
integration between the PC and the NavNet network,
sharing information from the radar, GPS, echo sounder and
other nav data within the NavNet system. A variety of
display orientations can be selected to meet your needs.

MaxSea-NavNet radar overlay
MaxSea-NavNet provides the highest quality electronic
charts available as the basis for its radar overlay. MaxSea-
NavNet overlays the full radar image at the same scale and
creates a dramatic improvement in accuracy and clarity.
MaxSea-NavNet radar overlay gives you amazingly
detailed images. The range of color and transparency of
the overlay guarantees that the chart is not hidden. This
allows for the confirmation of precise positioning relative to
the chart and clearly reveals any inconsistencies.

The unique overlay system optimizes data visualization
Using MaxSea-NavNet's multiple "overlay"
system, various layers of information can
be superimposed on the screen. Each
overlay contains different types of data,
such as tracks, marks, hazards, wrecks,
ports, currents, water temperature, etc.
Based on the needs of the moment, a
single click can make each layer visible or
invisible, eliminating irrelevant information
and clearly showing objects of interest.
Optional Personal Bathymetric Generator (PGB) clearly shows the contours of the bottom
Connected to the network sounder
and GPS, MaxSea-NavNet PBG
records the position and the depth
as your boat proceeds, which
enables you to create 2D and 3D
charts with pinpoint accuracy in real-
time. With a single click, MaxSea-
NavNet PBG will be activated to give
breathtaking real-time 2D and 3D
images of the seabed.
