To make the best and safe start as possible this summer, we released an update for WinGPS 5 for Windows. In this summer update for WinGPS 2016 the waterway network and bridges & locks database have been revised with the latest data. Also, several functions have been either optimized or added.

WinGPS 5 Navigator & Pro
The following updates have been made for WinGPS 5 Navigator & Pro:

• Improved route overview:
When opening the route overview you will receive a much clearer list of all expected bridges, locks and other waypoints. Printing the list has also been improved, making it possible for all data to be printed in one complete overview. (Click on the image to the left for an example).

• NOOA as GRIB source:
For a few weeks the Grib.us server has been offline. This means that all of our Navigator users could not download current weather forecasts in WinGPS. This source was changed to 'NOAA GFS 0.25 degrees' with which you can download new, more accurate Grib files.

WinGPS 5 Voyager
In addition to the above updates the following has been added to WinGPS 5 Voyager:

• NOAA Waves:
Via the Grib management you are now able to select 'NOAA Waves'. When this data has been downloaded you will see arrows which include average wave height (in meters) and wave period (in seconds). The arrows' length resembles the wave period and the width the height of the wave.
