al@18521 1 Opencpn was built with the following objectives in mind:
al@18521 2
al@18521 3 1. Intended use as primary navigation interface for vessels with full-time
al@18521 4 helm-visible navigational suites. Other tools may be better for offline
al@18521 5 route planning, tide and current prediction, online logging, etc.
al@18521 6 2. Quick startup and shutdown.
al@18521 7 3. Those and only those toolbar buttons really needed for daily operation.
al@18521 8 4. Portability, thus wxWidgets core components. Currently tested and in
al@18521 9 production use on W98, XP, OSx, and Linux.
al@18521 10 5. Conventional (i.e. popular and modern) chart format support. In the real
al@18521 11 world, this means BSB format raster charts, and S57ENC format vector charts.
