Canada North and East - 4D

The C-MAP 4D cartography is an advanced navigation solution that combines comprehensive vector data with innovative features. The "4D" refers to the integration of 3D views, satellite imagery, raster charts, and the Easy Routing function, providing an enriched and detailed navigation experience.

This chart specifically covers the Arctic and Atlantic coasts of Canada. This includes Hudson Bay, Newfoundland, the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, Nova Scotia, the Bay of Fundy, the Saint Lawrence River, the eastern part of Lake Ontario, and the entire Passamaquoddy Bay. The data is sourced from official hydrographic information.

It is intended for chartplotters compatible with C-MAP 4D/NTMAX charts on microSD/SD cards. Compatibility depends on the chartplotter model and firmware; therefore, check the C-MAP documentation or the device’s manual before purchase.

C-MAP 4D charts are designed to be compatible with a wide range of chartplotters from brands such as Lowrance, Simrad, and B&G. It is recommended to verify the specific compatibility of your chartplotter model with C-MAP 4D charts on the manufacturer's website of your device or on the C-MAP website.

Yes, the Easy Routing function is a built-in feature of the C-MAP CANADA NORTH AND EAST-4D mapping. This feature automatically calculates the best route based on chart data, depth, and your boat’s dimensions, for simpler and safer navigation.

High-resolution bathymetry (HRB) is a feature of the C-MAP 4D chart that provides ultra-detailed images of the seabed. It helps identify shallow areas, shoals, underwater structures, and depth changes, which is essential for safe navigation and fishing.

Yes, the C-MAP CANADA NORTH AND EAST-4D charting includes detailed tide and current information for covered areas. This data is critical for route planning and navigation in coastal and estuarine waters.

Installing the C-MAP chart is usually straightforward. Simply insert the MicroSD card (with or without an SD adapter, depending on your device's slot) into your chartplotter's card reader. The chartplotter should automatically recognize the card and display the chart data. It is advisable to consult your chartplotter's user manual for specific instructions.

Yes, this chartplotter mapping includes aerial photos. These images are often used to provide realistic views of marinas, harbors, and waterways, which can be very useful for approach and visual identification of landmarks.

Yes, C-MAP typically offers updates for its charts. These updates are often available through a subscription service that keeps your chart data current with the latest hydrographic information and new features.

The C-MAP CANADA NORTH AND EAST-4D chartplotter provides detailed harbor charts and marina information. This may include details on available services, points of interest, access points, and other practical information for boaters.

Yes, the C-MAP 4D chart integrates a 3D view function that allows visualization of land and underwater terrain. This three-dimensional perspective helps better understand the environment and anticipate depth or topographic changes.

The C-MAP Genesis Layer is a feature that provides access to community-generated and other bathymetric charts, offering finer detail levels for certain areas, particularly for fishing.

Yes, C-MAP 4D cartography includes custom depth shading. This lets you set specific depth ranges to display in different colors, making it easier to quickly identify safe or hazardous areas based on your draft.

The C-MAP CANADA NORTH AND EAST-4D chart is preloaded on a physical media card (MicroSD/SD). No download is required after purchase.

To fully utilize all C-MAP 4D chartplotter features, your chartplotter must have compatible software. It is recommended to ensure your device's firmware is up to date before inserting the card. Software updates are typically available on your chartplotter manufacturer's website.

C-MAP charts are typically tied to the physical media card. You can move the card from one compatible device to another, but it cannot be used simultaneously on multiple chartplotters unless you purchase separate cards for each device.

The 'shaded relief' is a visual feature that displays land and underwater elevation with a shading effect, giving a sense of depth and 3D topography. This allows for better visualization of terrain and seabed contours, even without activating the full 3D view.
