Enhance your navigation experience with a seamless navigation solution that provides up-to-date digital nautical charts, comprehensive harbour information, and a full suite of navigation features. The charts can be downloaded for offline use and offer exceptional compatibility with the NV Charts paper charts with a similar chart design. All currently valid editions of the NV Verlag / NV Charts nautical charts or inland charts | North Sea | Baltic Sea | Netherlands | Wadden Sea | Ijsselmeer | Sweden | Denmark | Germany | Norway | France | USA | Caribbean | Bahamas areas are compatible with the NV Charts App. Enjoy the best of both worlds - paper and digital: A perfect match is our popular combination package of high-quality digital charts and cleverly designed paper charts. Alternatively, you can also purchase digital nautical charts directly via the app with a convenient annual subscription that renews automatically. The integrated update service keeps the charts up to date. If it is not yet clear where the journey should go or no offline charts are activated, free online charts can be displayed for all NV Charts chart areas, even without a currently valid chart licence. Detailed and relevant information is essential for navigating safely on the water. With the NV Charts App, you are part of the BoatView community yourself. You can mark harbours, anchorages and navigation warnings on the digital nautical chart and also add pictures of interesting places that go beyond navigation, such as restaurants or popular attractions, and share them with the community. Others can respond directly with comments. The continuously edited content can be downloaded directly to be available offline. To make all the information easily accessible, the app offers a search function. You can explore the surroundings and search directly for place names as well as anchorages, harbours, ramps, waypoints, cranes, fuel stations or tide stations. The app also offers fast and flexible auto-routing, allowing you to navigate directly to your destination and edit a route manually. Navigation on board is even more fun together! You can share your tracks with friends or use the data outside the app and export it as a GPX file. You can easily share your favourite harbours and anchorages from the app via a link and coordinate your trip planning even better with everyone. The AIS function in the NV Charts App allows you to keep an eye on AIS signals in real time. A WiFi AIS receiver can be connected to the NV Charts App for this purpose. The AIS Class A and B targets and aids to navigation (ATON), as well as MOB AIS SART transponder emergency transmitters, are displayed, and the traffic situation can be better assessed. The NV Charts App can be installed and synchronized on multiple devices. NV Charts App - Features: + Search function + Autorouting (Europe + other regions following soon) + Velocity Made Good (VMG) + Community Layer / Points of Interest(POI) + Free online boating charts preview for planning + In App Purchases of digital offline charts + Community Layer / Points of Interest(POI) + Reads all NV Chart chart areas + Easy download of the maps + Always the latest data + Seamless zoom and panning functions + Tide Forecast + Online weather + AIS Wifi Support + AIS Sart Beacon + AIS CPA function + Night mode + Anchor alarm + Position with GPS + Intuitive route planning + Course markings, markings, bearing ruler + Port information + Display of instruments + Synchronizing devices + Live Position Sharing + Social sharing of routes, tracks, positions Note: Continued use of GPS in the background can significantly reduce battery life.

Leider werden nach dem letzten Update keine Namen der AIS-Ziele im nahen Umkreis mehr angezeigt. Nach ca. 2 Minuten verschwindet das AIS-Ziel ganz und erst nach erneutem Senden des gesamten Status ist das AIS-Ziel wieder da, jedoch wieder kein Schiffsname. Nur Rufzeichen, MMSI, Kurs, Entfernung und GPS-Daten. Mit exakt den gleichen Einstellungen in einem anderen Programm (Garmin) funktioniert alles einwandfrei. Habe nun neu installiert und 2 andere AIS-Transponder ausprobiert. Protokollfehler?

Schlechte Erfahrung gemacht mit Positionsdarstellung in der App. Seekarte und Bild nicht kongruent. Seekartenposition war daher falsch dargestellt, weiter weg von Land laut Seekarte als wir in Wirklichkeit waren. Auf der Bilddarstellung scheint es richtig zu sein. Ansonsten ganz gute App. Aber kein primäres Navigationsmittel. Bitte achtsam sein und eine gute Navigation anwenden. Immer sicher navigieren!

Schlechte Erfahrung gemacht mit Position auf der Karte. Seekarte und Satellitenansicht bzw. Foto oder Bild nicht kongruent. Seekartenposition war daher falsch dargestellt.

Das Kartenmaterial ist sehr genau und Informativ, und funktioniert mit dem Handy oder Tablet sehr gut. Die Routen Planung und Richtungsangaben funktionieren sehr gut.

Ohne die alten Karten zu löschen, kann ich die App noch nicht mal starten? Was ist das für eine Lizenzpolitik.
