ScanNav ENCs officielles SHOM - Primar
In addition to
"raster" charts (issued from scan, such as Maptech), ScanNav
supports S57
vector charts, including
Official ENCs (*)
from IHO, coded in S63
format.
In vector charts,
each object is known as such, and ScanNav can query each of them to
show their details. You can therefore show the sectors of a light to
immediately visualize their angle and range.
(*) Official ENCs are the original survey
of the hydrographic offices, contrarily to "private" vector charts that
have been reproduced manually by digitalizing the paper charts. This
therefore eliminates potential human errors in reproduction. (see article
from SHOM on this subject)
