Abstract
Various implementations described herein are directed to an apparatus for displaying marine electronic navigation data. The apparatus comprises one or more processors, a screen configured to display marine data, and a memory having a plurality of executable instructions. The executable instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, may cause the one or more processors to determine a location of a vessel and at least one of a heading or a projected direction of travel of the vessel, retrieve a bathymetric chart corresponding to the location, analyze the bathymetric chart, the location, and the at least one heading or projected direction of travel of the vessel to determine a plurality of depths that each correspond to one of a plurality of locations corresponding to the heading or the projected direction of travel of the vessel, and display the plurality of depths on the screen.
