Plan2Nav, the only mobile app designed exclusively for C-MAP by Jeppesen charts, is now available for Android mobile devices as well as popular iOS phones and tablets. This opens up a new mobile charting experience to boaters across Oceania, who can experience and download Plan2Nav during the 46th Sydney International Boat Show, 1-5 August at the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre. Visitors to the Jeppesen exhibit (Stand No. 416) will be able to test out Plan2Nav for themselves, download the free app and learn about detailed, accurate charts for use with the app or with a variety of onboard chartplotters from top manufacturers.

Introduced in 2011 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 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 begin 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
• Charts that can be viewed in 2D or Jeppesens unique Perspective View format
• 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.

We are very excited to bring the Plan2Nav experience directly to iOS and now Android users, said Francesco Altamura, Jeppesen senior manager, light marine global sales. 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.
