5.2 C-MAP NT MAX INFORMATION
MAX is a major evolution of NT/NT+ product technology. The key points are:
New Data Features
Tides and Currents (Intuitive arrows show direction and strength)
World Background Charts with terrestrial data
Value Added Data (Pictures and Diagrams. Land Data)
Enhanced Port Info
New Presentation Features
Clear View (advanced legibility techniques providing chart data on the screen)
Dynamic Nav-Aids (an innovative and dynamic presentation mode)
Dynamic Elevation Data (optimized palettes for chart plotter with more than 256 colors; includes new
NOAA palette)
Perspective view (“Real World” perspective view of the chart, Updated real-time during navigation
)
MAX and NT/NT+ C-CARD coexistence
When NT+ data and MAX data cover different areas, the chart plotter gets data from both charts
(depending on the current position).
When NT+ data and MAX data cover the same area, the chart plotter gets data only from the MAX
chart.
This is for the World Wide Background as well.
