Appendix C: C-MAP Chart Card Features

The C_MAP chart cards display cartographic features which are derived from a library of symbols. The library includes a set of 16 x 16 pixel bitmaps which provide realistically shaped icons for many chart objects. However, these complex icons can overlap and clutter the display at some scales, so it possible for the user to select smaller, simple icons. Some chart objects are represented by text; in such cases conventional abbreviated text is used, for example, M – mud, R – rock, Wk – wreck

The chartplotter set up menu provides the sub-menu CUSTOMISE CHART, which lets you determine how chart features are displayed. You can set the icon display of many features to custom; you then use the CUSTOM soft key to switch the customized icons off/on. The factory default for the CUSTOM options is on.

The chart features controlled from the Customize Chart menu are grouped as detailed below, some groups are sub-divided into categories
