Martek Marine’s one-of-a-kind iECDIS integrates a GSM modem, offering automatic download and installation of charts, updates and notices to mariners, reducing administrative burdens associated with CD updates. The GSM modem uses mobile network signals to keep iECDIS up to date anywhere with mobile signal, downloading the most recent piracy warnings and weather forecasts which can be instantly overlaid on the chart display itself.
