Description
The low-cost ICAO chart app for glider and power pilots that is really easy to use. opti*Map legally replaces the printed ICAO charts of DFS.
////// opti*Map is the digital ICAO chart for Germany //////
opti*Map is a cost-effective alternative to the printed ICAO charts of the German Air Traffic Control (DFS), which are usually used as backup for flights according to visual flight rules. The digital chart material is considerably clearer and more user-friendly than the large printed chart sheets. Who hasn't experienced that a lot of attention is lost when folding and, in the end, the unwieldy ball of paper doesn't fit into the side pocket anymore? Not to mention "flying over the edge of the map".
With opti*Map you can zoom, move and rotate the map continuously. The clarity is always maintained, because when zooming, it automatically switches between a total of five different levels of detail. When displaying the complete map sheet, only the most important airspaces, country borders and FIR areas are shown. If you zoom further and further into the map, more airspaces and the airfields are displayed. At the next level of detail, additional VORs, forest areas and roads appear. Finally, mandatory reporting points, the frequencies of the airfields and the altitude of the airspaces appear.
However, opti*Map is much more than a digital ICAO map on a smartphone or tablet. Namely, it also shows the current position and it can be used to navigate to target points. The map can be displayed "North-up", "Track-up" or "Goal-up". If the map is shifted very far, so that the aircraft symbol is no longer visible, it is sufficient to press the center key to display the current position again.
In addition to the digital ICAO chart, the airspace data of the DAeC are also displayed in Germany. In the altitude view, the start and end of the glider flight can be set.
All flights are saved and can be recalled. This even works during a flight!
Data tiles, which can be shown and hidden if desired, display important data. For example the speed over ground and the distance as well as deposit to the target. opti*Map optimizes the flights according to the WeGlide rules and calculates the wind very quickly.
opti*Map is updated significantly more often than a printed ICAO chart. All updates and feature enhancements are free of charge during the calendar year.
