10.3. Maps
The OpenCPN interface comes with a basic map view. This can easily download more detailed maps.
There is a wide range of free and licensed charts available in different formats via the OpenCPN
website at https://opencpn.org/OpenCPN/info/chartsource.html.
A worldwide directory of free nautical charts can also be found on openseachart.org. The collection and
the updates are community driven.
