Navionics Charts
For easy navigation, Viking Target provides easy access to the complete Navionics worldwide chart database. The Navionics database is displayed in high detail and full colour. All charts are vectorized, meaning that zooming in and out will not effect the quality of the charts displayed.
Viking Chart editor
In addition to the Navionics charts, Viking Target also supports the Viking Chart format. This enables you to create, edit and share customized chart data in any kind of form. For instance, by using the built-in Chart Editor you can create and edit charts by drawing, removing and modifying; lines, areas circles, scaling text, fixed sized text, remarks and symbols
