Navmaster ECS

ECS - Electronic Chart System   Brochure

Navmaster ECS is an electronic chart system developed to the IMO ECDIS specification and compliant with the draft International Standard for ECS, IEC62376.

It provides the full range of ECDIS navigation tools without the expense of Type Approved software and hardware. Easy to install and operate, Navmaster ECS software can be loaded onto standard PCs and interfaced via NMEA to onboard instruments.

Developed with feedback from customers over almost ten years and now installed on vessels operating in regions all over the world, Navmaster ECS is ideally suited to retro-fit and to newbuild vessels which do not require ECDIS.
