THE GROUND discrimination plotter from American Pioneer (AP) of Seattle, USA, enables fishermen to create their own high detail bathymetric charts.
Development of the ground discrimination plotter has been an ongoing project for quite a few years, AP's Nathan Roundy tells FNI.
What is more, he claims the system costs one-third of the price of a European competitor.
AP's Seatracker ground discriminating colour video plotter includes standard plotter functions such as tracks, waypoints and notes, as well as displaying seabed depth, hardness, roughness and temperature.
