Charts
The chart function displays your vessel's position relative to land and other chart objects.
On the panel you can plan and navigate routes, place waypoints, overlay a radar image or
weather information, and display AIS targets.
The NSO-II has different embedded cartography depending on region. Units sold in
America will include Insight cartography, while units sold in other regions will have an
embedded basemap plus a cartography SD card. Depending on region, the cartography
options available are CMAP BDS or downloadable Navionics or CMAP for Europe. All units
will support Navionics Platinum Plus and TurboView via the SD Card slot on the NSO
Processor. Charts are shared over the network, so only one chart card per boat is required.
The first part of this section describes common usage of the charts. Chart options depend
on type of cartography. For more details, see further ahead in this section.
