Maptech digital charts
Softcharts is one well-established alternative.
Yep. It is an alternative. So is guessing where you are. I've checked them all out too and you're wrong or else you work for SoftCharts and are getting paid to push that nonsense propaganda. Just think about it. Scanning a paper chart is wrought with paper stretching and other inaccuracies (think about the slight angle rotation caused by the scanner pulling the paper in). This doesn't happen when you are the exclusive partner to NOAA like Maptech is. I have nothing to gain by having others use their charts - like I said, go buy them. I just couldn't sit by while I saw incorrect "facts" written on this group. By the way, I wish the new CD's weren't protected either. I can understand that Maptech wants to stop others from stealing their products. To be honest, it doesn't really effect me since I purchase the products I use anyway. I guess if you're used to stealing your friends CD's, then this must really **** ya off... |
