Martek Marine released its unique ECDIS offering to the market: iECDIS, which the company claims is the first model to integrate a GSM modem, offering automatic download and installation of charts, updates and notices to mariners. The GSM modem uses a mobile network signal to keep iECDIS up to date anywhere with mobile signal, even downloading the most recent piracy warnings and weather forecasts. Designed and built to military specification, iECDIS is available for lease or purchase.
