Zoom in on a blue dot and click to see and download the map for free. When you and others record and upload sonar logs of boat trips in those gray-scale areas, you can replace the less-detailed gray-shaded contours with highly detailed blue-shaded C-MAP Genesis contours, and eventually create an entirely new, and amazingly accurate, map for the water body.Įach blue dot indicates a waterbody mapped with C-MAP Genesis. The gray-scaled contours on Social Map charts appear in areas where the C-MAP Insight basemap has not yet been improved by custom contour mapping with C-MAP Genesis. The blue-shaded areas are those that have been mapped with C-MAP Genesis, so those areas will appear in very high detail (usually with 2- to 5-foot contours, although shallower waterbodies can appear with 1-foot contours, and very deep waterbodies might display with 10-foot contours). On many waterbodies that are partially mapped, you will see both blue-shaded depth areas and gray-shaded depth areas. On the Social Map, online at waterbodies that are completely mapped feature charts with entirely blue-shaded depth areas - darker blue denotes deeper water lighter blue indicates shallower water. Some waterbodies have already been completely mapped by community-minded anglers, others are partially mapped, and some remain a blank slate, ready to be mapped. How to search for maps to download for FREE from Social Map
If you’re new to C-MAP Genesis, the first thing you might want to do is check if any of your favorite waterbodies have already been surveyed and have a chart available for free download from Social Map.
This article will teach you how to find maps of the waterbodies you’re interested in and how to download those maps for use on the water in your compatible* sonar/GPS device. One of the most popular features of C-MAP Genesis is Social Map, an online database of FREE downloadable maps for waterbodies close to home, across the country and around the world.
