Cartography

The GPSMAP 3206/3210 contains preloaded marine map detail using
BlueChart g2 technology. Coverage is for U.S. coastal areas, including Alaska
®
and Hawaii. Features include integrated mapping, 2-D or mariner's eye map
perspective, tide and current data, improved IALA symbols, navaids, marinas,
boat ramps, roads, and more.
The GPSMAP 3206/3210 accepts preprogrammed data cards and are compatible
with the latest BlueChart g2 series marine cartography. The unit shows
®
cartography as long as there is chart information available for the selected range.
Map coverage conforms to the following conditions:
• Cartography appears when the selected zoom range is covered by either the
internal database, or BlueChart g2 data.
• When the selected zoom range is covered by both the internal database and
BlueChart g2 data, the cartography with the best resolution appears.
• When the selected zoom range exceeds the resolution of the data in use,
overzoom cartography appears and an overzoom warning appears below
the range.
NOTE: The GPSMAP 3206/3210 is not compatible with Garmin
BlueChart g2 Vision mapping data.
