Abstract

Methods and systems for managing the orientation of the display of an aeronautical chart, notably towards Magnetic North or True North are provided. Rotational and/or translational tactile movements may manage the display of the chart. In one advantageous embodiment, the display screen is a haptic feedback screen (for example piezoelectric or MEMS microactuators), the North symbol rendered in relief is able to be manipulated with a single finger and the display device is stabilized by at least partially compensating for the turbulence experienced by the cockpit. Some software aspects are described.
