| The
portable, color GPSMAP® 96C, along with GPSMAP 96, integrate
full-featured GPS navigation with a Jeppesen database and
comprehensive towers-and-obstacles database — giving
pilots the freedom to go anywhere.
The pilot-friendly GPSMAP
96C has a crisp color display, making map detail easy to
read. With 119 megabytes of memory and a mini-USB port,
users can quickly download and store map data from a variety
of optional MapSource CD-ROMs. Its simple one-thumb keypad
control literally puts the world of GPS capability in the
palm of your hand.
Whether on land, sea, or
air, the GPSMAP 96C is the smart, versatile way to get there:
Extensive Jeppesen database
includes airports, identifiers and services
Comprehensive U.S. database of obstacles and towers helps
alert pilots of potential hazards
Graphic HSI steering cues with GPS-derived VNAV provide
added orientation
Built-in autoroute basemap and optional MapSource marine,
topo and city street mapping downloads let you move seamlessly
from plane to car to boat to hiking boots.
The GPSMAP 96C offers an extensive Jeppesen database along
with a U.S. database of obstacles for the ultimate in moving-map
situational awareness. It depicts Jeppesen® airport
data overlaid on an electronic map, localizer-like runway
extensions, a GPS-derived horizontal situation indicator
(HSI) and information on nearby airports (including identifier,
bearing and distance to each). It also features a detailed
database of nearby obstructions like radio towers and high-rise
buildings. Using symbology, it depicts an obstacle along
the flight route, giving pilots a visual cue and alerting
them to potential hazards ahead.
An automatic logbook also
calculates your flight time and automatically records departure
and arrival locations. When used with Garmin's free logbook
software—FlightBook—this feature makes light
work of maintaining your logbook. Your flight information
will be stored in the unit and can be downloaded to this
exclusive Flightbook software at any time.
Like all of Garmin's new
aviation portables, the GPSMAP 96C also provides advanced
navigation capabilities on the road or water. It features
a built-in basemap depicting highways, major roads, lakes,
rivers, railroads and state and national borders. It also
provides automatic-route generation, off-route recalculation,
and turn-by-turn directions with audible tones to alert
the driver of upcoming turns.
When coupled with optional
MapSource City Select® software, GPSMAP 96C enables
the user to locate and route to more than 5 million points
of interest, including hotels, restaurants, service stations,
ATMs and more. For pilots who also like to captain a boat,
these units have a Marine mode. Using optional MapSource
BlueChart® or Recreational Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots®
software, users can navigate the high seas or nearby lakes
with ease. An added bonus: The GPSMAP 96C is not only waterproof,
but also floats!
