Reading a Navionics Map

[LittleLloyd]

Hi, I am familiar with reading topo maps, and lake maps I understood to be basically the same. I'm using the Navionics Map for Android.

What are the 44 notations?

my guess is 44 feet

Don't think it means 44 feet.

You're depth units are set to meters, if you go into your settings function, you can change it to feet and it should look more familiar.

I would guess Kilometers since the scale on the map is kilometers. using 4.4 as a example you can take 4.4 * 40 (# of inches to a meter) = 176 inches / 12 inches per foot = 14.667 feet where you see 4.4 on the map. I could be wrong about this but this is my guess

Yep, what he said. I just confirmed it by looking at Como and changing to meters.

Great app. I spend a lot of time playing with it and planning trips.

Kinda odd that it still has a couple foot markings in there also.

[LittleLloyd]

Yeah, I think it was the foot markings on the contours that threw me off. @Brad and @dtro were right, I thought I had my settings in feet, but they were not. Switching it shows a depth map that I would have expected.

Thanks all!

No problem.
