Navionics integrates the sonar logs from individual users, with existing data to ensure SonarChart™ becomes more and more precise, even in the ever-changing conditions of sea, lake and river bottoms. Only Navionics accepts sonar logs from all major plotter/sonar brands and mobile devices. Find details on SonarChart™ Live compatible devices below.
