The development of a low-cost integrated marine navigation system for leisure crafts and small boats

Nowadays, most nautical charts are specially produced for large vessels with various equipments and facilities for chart handling. However, such equipments are not available on small boats such as fisherman boats and yachts. In fact, these boats still used conventional nautical charts that are less...
