Digital Yacht are pleased
to announce that all of their wireless AIS and wireless NMEA servers
are compatible with the new AIS feature that was added to the hugely
popular Navionics Boating App in July. This free update, which included
a number of other important feature additions, has for the first time,
enabled "live" AIS data to be overlaid on the charts,directly withinthe
Navionics app.
The Navionics Boating App
with over a million downloads and hundreds of thousands of active users
each summer, is by far the most popular marine application for Apple
and Android devices. The addition of "live"AIS
support, will make the app an even more powerful navigation tool,
giving you instant situational awareness of "what the big ships
are doing" which in bad weather or poor visibility can bea godsend.
If you are in the market
for a new AIS receiver or transponder, then choosing a wireless model
from Digital Yacht will ensure that it alsoworks
with your Navionics App. Alternatively, if you are one of thelarge number of boat owners that already have a
perfectly good AIS device, but no Wi-Fi interface, then adding one of
Digital Yacht's wireless NMEA servers will enable your existing AIS to
be used with the Navionics Boating App.
Whether you want to
transmit or just receive, have an NMEA 0183 AIS or a newer NMEA 2000
model, Digital Yacht will have a suitable modelto
suit your requirements and can help advise on all aspects of interfacing
and installation.
