The GNSS Chartplotters are dedicated devices meant to be used in maritime navigation activities.

There are two types of maritime products using GNSS technology, the handheld devices and the chartplotters. There is also the option of using a computer connected to GNSS, loaded with proper software.

These products provide assistance in three major nautical activities: maritime en route navigation, collision avoidance (through means of AIS) and fishing activities.

Detailed information about Chartplotters can be found here.
