PATHFINDER/ST MK 2 ECDIS Electronic Chart Display and Information System

Raytheon's Pathfinder/ST MK 2 ECDIS is the perfect complement to any bridge and fulfills the safety requirements of major classification societies.

• The Pathfinder/ST MK 2 ECDIS console was developed according to the latest IMO and IEC specifications of performance standards for ECDIS.
• The Electronic Chart Data Base (ECDB), fulfills the IMO format definition S 57/DX 90.
• All electronic charts in CM-93 and C-MAP format can be loaded.
• The Pathfinder/ST MK 2 ECDIS utilizes the intuitive Windows NT® which is used all over the world. This makes it possible for the crew to quickly become familiar with the operating system.

The simple intelligent arrangement allows easy integration with additional navigation instruments such as radar or autopilot and makes Raytheon's Pathfinder/ST MK 2 ECDIS the central bridge component for navigation and collision avoidance.

Performance Characteristics
