Using C-Map MAX data cards allows you to show pictures or diagrams on the Chart Plotter display. These Pictures are typically used to facilitate the identification of cartographic objects or places around the map: they can be the landscape layout nearby a harbor, the shape of a bridge or of a buoy etc.

On some objects, such as bridges, the image associated can represent the Diagram representing the shape of the objects and the various characteristics (length, height, type of bridge etc.).
