BlueChart

®

g2 is Garmin’s exclusive line of highly-detailed marine cartography, which comes

preloaded for the costal United States on Garmin’s GPSMAP

®

492/498 chartplotters, the

large-display GPSMAP 2200 series, and GPSMAP 3200 series of chartplotters. BlueChart

g2 cartography features smoother layering and better integration of map graphics for faster

redraws and more cohesive panning, scrolling, and zooming. It features richer colors and

shading for easier interpretation and improved visibility. BlueChart g2 has all the detail of

traditional BlueChart, but with additional functions, such as an optional “mariner’s-eye view”

map perspective.
With the addition of BlueChart g2 preprogrammed data cards, you can access costal roads

and points of interest (POIs) as well as a growing worldwide database of high-quality

navigationally significant photos. These photos give “real picture” detail for many harbors,

ports, marinas and coastal features.

BlueChart g2 cartography features a growing database of aerial

photography to give mariners a visual overview of harbors,

marinas, waterways, and other points of reference.
