***Seawell launches series of Lakes and Parks on to the market with up-to-date maps along with fishing spots and aerial images. For people who are looking for appealing charts, features like seamless scrolling, comprehensive coverage with good chart view management, track recording and safety feature (MOB), Seawell marine navigation applications are the best choice.
*** Comprehensive coverage
Coverage of the chart is extensive and detailed:
*** Seamless scrolling:
With Seawell chart application you can zoom in and out without having to look for and load different charts. You can still scroll/zoom even when the favorites list or track list view is open. You can also mark or add favorite spots, dynamically without going back and forth to the chart.
*** Chart view management
Lots of care has been taken to avoid clutter of icons, to utilize the full view of the chart to display only the map. With a single ON/OFF button, you can have full chart clear view. All the buttons on the chart are configurable to be turned off from the view in the settings
*** Track recording
√ Knowing where you’ve been helps significantly when visualizing where you’re going. Track recording is also a useful supplement to a log.
√ Intuitive interface to turn a track ON/ OFF, edit details & delete.
√ Intuitive track detail view helps you to start / stop / pause / continue your track recording.
√ GPS Tracking with north up / Course up!
Three modes of GPS tracking, Red denotes user location centered and north up, yellow denotes user location is tracked but not centered with north up and blue denotes user location centered and map is rotated in course UP direction.
*** Favorites:
√ You can simply use your finger to tap positions on the chart where you want favorites.
√ Favorites list is also easy to use.
√ A picture is one thing, which tells more about your favorite places and you can share the same with your friends and families with different formats such as KML, KMZ and GPX
