to visualize the weather forecast, overlaying it on cartography. The weather data is
held on C-MAP’s weather server, which can be accessed via a C-COM modem con-
nected to the chart plotter or by using the C-MAP personal Suite (or the DPS - Dealer

are overlaid on a map page as layers. The Weather format data available are:
