Charts and 3D Chart Views

The GPSMAP 700 series chartplotters have a basic imagery map. The charts and 3D chart views listed below are available on the chartplotter.

Note: Mariner’s Eye 3D and Fish Eye 3D chart views are available only if you use a BlueChart g2 Vision SD card (page 16). The Fishing chart is available if you use a BlueChart g2 Vision SD card or a BlueChart g2 SD card, or if your built-in map supports Fishing charts.

Navigation Chart—shows navigation data available on your pre-loaded maps and from supplemental maps, if available. The data includes buoys, lights, cables, depth soundings, marinas, and tide stations in an overhead view (page 4).

Perspective 3D—shows a view from above and behind your boat for a visual navigation aid (page 15).

Mariner’s Eye 3D—shows a detailed, three‑dimensional view from above and behind the boat for a visual navigation aid (page 17).

Fish Eye 3D—provides an underwater view that visually represents the sea floor according to the chart information (page 18).

Fishing Chart—removes navigational data from the chart and enhances bottom contours for depth recognition (page 19).

Radar Overlay—superimposes radar information on the Navigation chart or the Fishing chart (page 61).
