OpenCPN Open Source Chart Plotter Navigation Software A Chartplotter and GPS Navigation Software OpenCPN is a free software project to create a concise chart plotter and navigation software, for use underway or as a planning tool. OpenCPN is developed by a team of active sailors using real world conditions for program testing and refinement.

OpenCPN uses some basic settings or limitations. Courses are by default true, not magnetic. Distances are measured in Nautical Miles (meters for very short distances, less than a cable or 0.1 mile). Feet= Meters X 3.28 All distances and routes are calculated using Mercator Sailing, not Great Circle Sailing. Knots is used for speed. These fundamental settings cannot be changed. OpenCPN A Chartplotter and GPS Navigation Software

With the addition of a GPS dongle, OpenCPN moves from a chart viewer to a powerful chart plotter
