: Turns the Attention Areas (areas in which special attention by the mariner is required
because of natural or man-made hazards sailing regulations and restrictions) On or Off.
: Turns the Tides and Currents On or Off. When data/time is available, Tidal stream ar-
rows are shown on the charts, indicating the direction and strength of the Tide. If no data/
time is available from the GPS or the CPN Series Chart Plotter is not in Simulation mode,
the icon on the chart is generic one. The color of the arrow denotes the strength of the
current as follows:
When the CPN Series Chart Plotter receives a valid position fix, the Tide icons are shown
on the charts on the basis of the current date and time: the screen displays and changes
arrows as date/time changes.
: Turns the Seabed Type On or Off.
: Turns the Ports and Service icons On or Off. Areas along the shore with facilities for
mooring, downloading and uploading of ships, generally sheltered from waves and winds.
Port installations are piers, wharves, pontoons, dry docks, cranes....
: Turns the Tracks and Routes objects (recommended and established routes for ships at sea,
including traffic separation schemes, deep water routes) On or Off.
: Selects among three different Depth Shading Modes: Safe, Dynamic and Dynamic
Inverted. Each shading method presents the depth area, and the color used to display it,
according a different rule. In Dynamic and Dynamic Inverted modes, it's possible to highlight
particular depth area selecting a depth interval; you can choose a particular depth range and
each depth area which overlaps these values will be highlighted with a defined color.
Dynamic: When shading mode is set to Dynamic, the depth areas are drawn using a color
defined dynamically according the deepness of the other areas that have to be displayed.
It's possible to summarize the behavior of this mode in these few steps: first of all, any
deepness will be collected in a ordered list, then 32 different blue colors from dark blue
to white are assigned to these values. White is used to draw the highest depth area.
Dynamic Inverted: Dynamic Inverted mode is similar to Dynamic mode, the only
difference is that dark blue will be used for the highest depth area and white for the lowest
depth area.
Safe: Safe mode permits to identify the areas with a deepness above a value specified
by user (see Safe Depth option). This shading mode is very important to identify the map
region where the deepness is greater than a specified value and for this reason the
shipping can be considered safe.
