NavNet 3D incorporates native 3D chart architecture that allows for a full-time 3-dimensional presentation, as opposed to 2D charts that require special effects to appear 3D. There are no special modes; that limit your ability to navigate the way you want. With NavNet 3D’s true 3D environment, you can see all of the information you want with no limitations on what information you wish to view. Plus, it is pre-loaded with full-scale, complete NOAA raster and vector chart libraries for the entire U.S. coastline, including Alaska and Hawaii. Overlay a variety of data with a touch of the Rotokey, such as Radar overlay, Sirius Satellite Weather, AIS targets, ARPA targets plus all of your chart symbols and depth soundings. This is the beauty of navigating in NavNet 3D, you have full control over the presentation at all times.

Even though your raster or vector charts are operating in their native 3D environment full-time, one long press of the 3D key will toggle the chart from a familiar 2D top-down perspective, to your favorite 3D angle.

Our high-resolution satellite photography can now be fused with raster or vector chart information. Land areas (zero depth) are completely opaque, so that these areas are displayed as high-resolution satellite photos on the chart. As the depth increases, the satellite photography becomes more transparent so that you will know where the shallows end and the deeper water begins, allowing you to navigate on the raster or vector chart.
High-resolution satellite photography aids in seabed classification so that you will be able to easily identify areas of sand, rock, coral or other obstructions.
