    Jeppesen Charts to the Flight Simulation Community

    Here at Navigraph we have been deliberately secretive about our upcoming charts product, and only presented a few of the new features on our developer blog. However, as we are approaching launch date, and still have some more features to show, we are now ready to unveil the greatest improvement to Navigraph Charts to date: In the next version of Navigraph Charts, all chart data will be provided by Jeppesen.
    Enhanced SID and STAR Chart Format
    The new version of Navigraph Charts will display Jeppesen’s new and enhanced SID and STAR chart format featuring, among other things, colored topography and true-to-scale depiction.
    he new format has several improvements which we will cover in a separate blog post later on. However, in the picture above, you can see the regular grid of Minimum Off Route Altitudes (MORA), the red Minimum Sector Altitude (MSA) circle, navaid symbology and associated speed restrictions in red text. Charts and NavData from One Source
    Navigraph Charts will also contain enroute charts that are dynamically rendered based on Jeppesen NavData. Using Jeppesen as a provider for all data will ensure synchronized information between airport charts, enroute charts, addon data formats, and any other data displayed in Navigraph apps and software. The enroute charts will also, to a great extent, use the symbology of the enhanced SID and STAR chart format. Chart updates will follow the regular 28-day AIRAC cycle.

    Features Enabled by the Jeppesen Format
    The new Jeppesen charts format will add many benefits and enable additional functionality requested by our users to the Navigraph Charts software. First and foremost, the coverage will dramatically increase to 6,784 airports. This is the most comprehensive coverage available. Secondly, with the Jeppesen chart format we can now offer charts in a darker night mode color scheme. Thirdly, since Jeppesen charts are generally geo referenced and true-to-scale, we will be able to place an ownship overlay (“moving maps”) on top of the charts, aiding situational awareness during a flight. User Preference
    In addition to the user requested features that were technically made available through the Jeppesen chart format, the change to Jeppesen is also based on the results of our user survey where a majority of 2,200 participants reported being the most familiar with Jeppesen charts, and preferring the Jeppesen format among four different chart formats.

  • Der Runde Flughafen....

    Naja ich glaube schon, dass die Firma die dahinter steckt schon ein wenig Ahnung von der Fliegerei und es immerhin erstmal ein Konzept ist, von daher ist die Idee und das Konzept schon sehr interessant, da es zum herkömmlichen Flughafen etwas weniger Platz bedarf!

  • Welchen Yoke ?

    Ja preislich wirst du dann wohl mit Saitek fahren schau mal bei eBay dort findest du welche zum guten Kurs! CH-Products sind halt wie schon gesagt robuster meiner Meinung nach! Aber du machst auch mit saitek nichts flasch!
