RASTER CHARTS VS. VECTOR CHARTS

The National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration provides both RNC (raster) & ENC (vector) charts.

The great advantage of the high resolution RNC charts used by iSailGPS is the high level of detail produced by professional cartographers that is unobtainable on any vector-based chart. ENC Vector Charts only show a coastline, water depth, navigation aids & minimal details.

These RNC Charts differ from vector charts in that each chart covers a specific area, just as paper nautical charts do. Switches automatically to a new chart when your boat leaves the area covered by the previous chart. For most locations, there are multiple charts at different scales with different levels of detail & areas of coverage.

Paper charts can have multiple panels, each showing a different area or scale. Each digital panel is individually displayed by iSailGPS with a north-up orientation.

Other more expensive marine software uses these same RNC charts. iSail GPS is priced to make it readily available to all boating enthusiasts.

Winner of the Practical Sailor Editors’ Choice Award.

DEVICE REQUIREMENTS

Use iSailGPS on any iOS device even if you don't have a cellular data plan for it. iPhones & WiFi+cellular iPads support full navigation. For WiFi-only iPads & iPod touch, an iOS-compatible external GPS receiver is required to show your location on the water & record tracks. However, you can view charts using the iOS device alone.

Discover a safer and more enjoyable sailing experience with iSailGPS!

ISailGPS : NOAA USA RNC Charts Pros

Navigation programA real navigation program worth far more than its $8.00 cost. A bit tedious loading NOAA charts, but well worth the required effort. Used on recent yacht delivery on St Johns River Florida USA with perfect results. The up to date marked charts big help. Kept me and my crew on track through somewhat complex unfamiliar waters. Prevented two near groundings. Every boater with an I phone should have this program. Perfect for small boats with no other navigation equipment. Shows "course/up" and can be used by anyone with basic boating course qualifications. I hold a US Coast Guard 100 Ton Masters License..Victrovsky11Version: 5.0.3

Well done raster chartingISailGPS displays raster charts - essentially photo copies of the printed NOAA charts. It shows your position. It can record your track. It can set and store waypoints (but not routes). For $8, that's a huge bargain. There are some problems: The method for downloading charts (they're free) is quirky. The interface has to be learned. But these are small issues compared to the utility of the app..SkkippyVersion: 2.0

ISailGPS : NOAA USA RNC Charts Cons

Don’t waste your moneyUseless, doesn’t load charts , really a total waste.Len082Version: 8.1.9

DisappointedThis app does not allow you to zoom in far enough. I can understand if it was just a chart app but with GPS in your phone allowing zoom to several feet the chart should also be able to do it. Don’t waste your money..MVGreenvilleVersion: 8.2.6
