15. C-MAP WEATHER SERVICE
C-MAP Weather Service is an innovative meteorological forecasting system with the ability
to visualize the weather forecast, overlaying it on cartography. The weather data is held on
C-MAP’s weather server, which can be accessed via a C-COM modem connected to the
GPS Chart Plotter or by using the C-MAP personal Suite saving the weather data on a
User C-CARD. The weather data are overlaid on a map page as layers.
