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. Please note that Canadian Hydrographic Service Digital Charts CD-ROMs do not contain navigation software or chart viewing software. Canadian Hydrographic Service Digital Charts focus on chart content only. You must already own navigation software in order to view the charts. |

| 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. The End User Licence Agreement (EULA) is valid for one year from the date of purchase and entitles you to receive free updates for one year from the date of purchase. Your product must be registered to receive updates. After your one-year licence expires, if you wish to continue to receive chart updates as well as new charts and new editions, you must purchase a new CD-ROM. The purchase of a Canadian Hydrographic Service Digital Charts CD includes a licence for the installation, registration, decryption and use of the charts on a primary device/computer, plus installation of one backup on another device owned by the same user. These charts are compatible with most popular navigation software on the market, enabling the user to integrate the charts with a GPS to watch your boat move across the screen in real-time. Fugawi Global Navigator, BoatCruiser, and MapCruiser software, all available from Federal Publications, are excellent companions to the Canadian Hydrographic Service Digital Charts. |
