Seazone Solutions introduce SeaZone HydroView|Charts for use where marine data needs to be displayed rather than analysed.
SeaZone  HydroView|Charts offer full global coverage, having been created from  digitised and geo-referenced paper charts for GIS display, human  interpretation and contextual mapping. These raster map layers are  available for immediate use in Geographic Information Systems for a  range of applications, without the need for additional software, add-ons  or plug-ins, resulting in gains in time and performance.
HydroView  Charts provides ideal backdrop mapping for a variety of applications  from desktop to Internet.  They can be also combined with existing  datasets to make the display and dissemination of maps within reports or  over the Internet simple and effective.
Keiran Millard, Group  Manager of SeaZone says “Our customers are very familiar with  traditional navigation charts.  Our HydroView product range provides  electronic versions of these charts and also prepares for our new range  of products designed for where marine data needs to be used for display  rather than for spatial analysis”.

The company produces a range of innovative  data products which include SeaZone HydroSpatial, the first ‘off the  shelf’ authoritative digital marine map, and SeaZone TruDepth Grids,  providing one seamless layer of best available UK bathymetry.
