ENGLEWOOD, COLO. | 05 Dec 2012 | By Jeppesen

Plan2Nav, the only mobile app designed exclusively for C-MAP by Jeppesen charts, is now available for Android mobile devices. Introduced last year for iPad and iPhone devices, Plan2Nav is an innovative, free app that puts the power of trip planning and navigation with C-MAP cartography at boaters fingertips. Plan2Nav is an ideal tool for voyage-planning tasks like mapping out a route, setting waypoints and measuring course and distance for each leg of the journey.

Available through the Google Play Android Store, Plan2Nav includes a worldwide background map at no cost. Users can then purchase the latest Jeppesen charts with advanced C-MAP 4D MAX content and features along with expansive coverage areas to unlock the full potential of this unique planning tool. Once these charts are purchased and downloaded, they stay recorded on the device for full accessibility, even when no wireless connection is available.

Depending on coverage area, charts for Plan2Nav start at $19.99 USD and unlock a variety of powerful features, including:

• Detailed harbor charts with Jeppesens exclusive C-Marina Port Database, marina diagrams and aerial images
• Dynamic Tides and Current Predictions for added safety, better fishing and more efficient cruising
• Detailed depth and land elevation data for a more informative, realistic chart presentation
• View charts in 2D or Jeppesens unique Perspective View format
• View accurate, up-to-date NavAid positions for safer navigation

Plan2Nav operates in north up or course up orientation for fully rotating visualization, while its compass rose display provides an at-a-glance graphic presentation of your current heading. Speed Over Ground, Course Over Ground, Estimated Time of Arrival and Time To Go data help you stay on top of every voyage. The ability to download and overlay both five-day weather forecasts and satellite images (using Google Maps) provides an enhanced experience whether planning or navigating.

We are very excited to bring the Plan2Nav experience directly to Android users around the world, said Francesco Altamura, senior product manager. This is another important step in making our electronic charts more accessible and familiar to people around the world. Plan2Nav puts the power of electronic navigation in your hands.

Boaters can learn more about Plan2Nav for both Android and iOS mobile devices by downloading the application at the Android Store or Apple App Store respectively, or by visiting online at www.jeppesen.com/lightmarine.
