| Last update WinGPS 5 Pro & Voyager 2018 |
|
Last week we released the last update for WinGPS 5 Pro & Voyager 2018. Below you will find a description of the updates, among which the addition of ENC charts and the new tidal data for 2019. ENC charts in WinGPS 5 Pro & Voyager WinGPS 5 Pro & Voyager 2018 now support the use of ENC sea and inland charts. This complies with the obligation of the new German law to use IENC on German water highways, as defined by the WSV. This update has been specially developed for commercial use. Free IENC charts cab be downloaded via the website of Rijkswaterstaat (Dutch). This contains the larger water ways for the Netherlands, France, Austria, Belgium, Germany, Croatia, Serbia, the Czech Republic, Romania, Slowakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Switzerland, Poland and the US.
With WinGPS 5 Pro & Voyager supporting ENC charts is an important step for us, skippers and commercial shipping. A big advantage is the possibility to combine the vector charts with our own hybrid (DKW) charts and the route network in WinGPS. Supporting both vector and grid charts gives us the opportunity to combine the best of both worlds for a safer and smarter navigational system aboard. Our new software WinGPS Inland Navigation, expected spring 2019 and specifically developed for commercial inland shipping, has already been added to the accepted navigational software of the WSV.
