Canadian Hydrographic Service
Digital Charts on CD-ROM

Nautical charts on CD-ROM offer a user-friendly, portable and cost-effective means of obtaining charts for a large area. For example, the charts for Georgian Bay are all contained on one CD - for only $74.95.


 
Canadian Hydrographic Service Digital Charts are officially released CHS raster charts. ("Raster" is a computer generated image that is a replica of the paper navigation chart - with the latitude and longitude of the position of the cursor.) These CDs are designed for recreational boaters and function with most navigational software.

The current registration system requires customers to contact CHS via the internet or telephone for the initial unlocking of the data. During this process the customer is provided with a password from CHS. With this password customers can unlock the data and copy it to their computer.
