Safety Depth page
Once a map service has been chosen, use Map Display to choose which map elements to include in the map presentation. The Safety Depth page allows you to change the safety depth settings, and thus the presentation of the various water depths.
How to open
This page is located in the Display Options dialog box. The Display Options dialog box is located on the Display menu.

Description

Once a map is projected on top of the echo data, the depth contour lines are drawn with specific colours.
Note
The map is only shown in Horizontal views when Range Projection is set to True.
Details
Safety Contour
The Safety Contour function specifies and shows a safety contour line. The line is marked with depth values at regular intervals. The area inside the safety contour line is marked with a light blue colour to indicate unsafe waters. If the map does not have a contour for the depth value you have specified, the nearest contour with a larger absolute depth value is shown. This contour line will not be marked with depth values. This contour will instead be shown with a thick black line.
Safety Depth
This function specifies the limit for highlighting single depth values. Black colour is used. All depth values indicating deeper water than the specified safety depth are shown with grey colour.
Depth Contour
Select Depth Contour to allow shallow and deep contours to be drawn.
Shallow Contour
The Shallow Contour function specifies and shows a shallow contour line. The line is marked with depth values at regular intervals. If the map does not have a contour for the depth value you have specified, the nearest contour with a larger absolute depth value is shown. The area inside this contour line is shown with a dark blue colour.
Deep Contour
The Deep Contour function specifies and shows a deep contour line. The line is marked with depth values at regular intervals. If the map does not have a contour for the depth value you have specified, the nearest contour with a larger absolute depth value is shown. This contour line will not be marked with depth values. The area inside this contour line is marked with darker colours than outside.
Shallow Pattern
Select Shallow Pattern to present the area inside the safety contour line with a hatched (or shaded) pattern.

Once a map service has been chosen, use Map Display to choose which map elements to include in the map presentation. These map settings are only valid for WMS (Web Map Service) maps from a KONGSBERG navigation system.
Map function
This is an "on/off" switch. Use Map to enable or disable the geographical map layer. This function is opened from the Cosmetics menu.
Map Setup page
If you want to add a map to the display presentation you must first select a map provider. Use the Map Setup page to choose a map provider and to enter necessary provider URL, API Key or license. This page is located in the Installation dialog box. The Installation dialog box is located on the Setup menu.
Range Projection function
The distance to a target located anywhere in the water column can be measured in two ways. This can either be the horizontal distance to the target (True), or along the tilt angle (Slant). The Range Projection function defines how this distance is measured. This function is opened from the Active menu.
