WARNING: Chart datum
It is the Captain’s responsibility to ensure that all cartography
used in the H6 system is based on WGS84. Failure to do so could
create an error in the boat’s position.
Introduction
H6 utilizes chart layering technology, which permits you to simultaneously view
different types of charts and maps, including navigational charts, live radar, and
weather data.
Chart detail
The chart is a digitized image of the paper chart for the selected area, and shows
objects, such as landmasses, navigational objects and depth contours. The
amount of detail shown varies for different chart types and areas covered. The
scale at which the chart is shown also affects the amount of detail shown.
Cartographic information is also available for objects marked on the chart. Source
details for such objects as structures, lines and open sea areas are also available.
You can also overlay the radar image or weather information on to the chart.
