| Whether on
land, sea, or air, the GPSMAP 96 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 96 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.
Like all of Garmin's new aviation portables, the GPSMAP
96 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 96 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 96 is not only waterproof, but also floats!
The GPSMAP 96: One nav fits all.
