3D DISPLAY, OVERLAYS
3.1
3D Display
The 3D display has native 3D chart design that allows full time 3D presentation. This
true 3D environment gives you all of the information you require with no restrictions on
the information you can see. You can plan your routes, enter points, etc. like on the
2D chart.
The 3D display provides a 3D view of land and sea around your ship. The 3D display
has most of the same information as the 2D display. With both presentations available
you can see the conditions around your ship from different angles. The 3D display
helps you navigate when you are in waters that you do not know. Also, most functions
of the 2D display, for example, destination setting, are available in the 3D display.
For best results make sure you have accurate position and heading data.

How to make the 3D view clearer
In the 3D display, some topographical features are easier to see if you use the 3D exaggeration feature. This feature expands both objects on the chart and the underwater
vertically so that you can easily see the shape of the objects and position. There are
two methods for 3D exaggeration: automatic and manual.
1. Open the home screen, then tap [Settings] - [Plotter].
2. Find the [3D DISPLAY] section.
3. Automatic method:
Turn on [Auto Alti 3D Exaggeration].
Manual method:
Turn off [Auto Alti 3D Exaggeration]. Use the slider or software keyboard at [3D
Alti Exaggeration] to set the exaggeration level.
High gives the highest level of exaggeration. The example below compares the
same picture in low and high exaggerations.
