IntroductIon  
BlueChart® g2 is Garmin’s exclusive line of highly-detailed marine cartography, which comes  
preloaded for the costal United States on Garmin’s GPSMAP® 492/498 chartplotters, the  
large-display GPSMAP 2200 series, and GPSMAP 3200 series of chartplotters. BlueChart  
g2 cartography features smoother layering and better integration of map graphics for faster  
redraws and more cohesive panning, scrolling, and zooming. It features richer colors and  
shading for easier interpretation and improved visibility. BlueChart g2 has all the detail of  
traditional BlueChart, but with additional functions, such as an optional “mariner’s-eye view”  
map perspective.  
With the addition of BlueChart g2 preprogrammed data cards, you can access costal roads  
and points of interest (POIs) as well as a growing worldwide database of high-quality  
navigationally significant photos. These photos give “real picture” detail for many harbors,  
ports, marinas and coastal features.  
BlueChart g2 cartography features a growing database of aerial  
photography to give mariners a visual overview of harbors,  
marinas, waterways, and other points of reference.

Additional BlueChart g2 enhancements include:  
Shaded depth contours  
Mariner’s eye view map perspective  
Port plans and navigationally significant photos (Preprogrammed data card only)  
Improved IALA symbology  
Intertidal zones with spot soundings  
Navaids with view range and coverage  
Data on tides and currents  
Coastal roads, marinas, points of interest (Preprogrammed data card only)  
Wrecks, restricted areas, anchorages  
Shoals, spoilage, and more  
Like all BlueChart cartography, BlueChart g2 cartography is styled to match the appearance  
of paper charts when displayed on your Garmin chartplotter. Sharp, colorful, finely detailed  
graphics let you see every cartographic contour and feature, with a minimum of panning and  
zooming to bring the chart data into focus.

To insert the card, place the card into the slot (connector end first) with the label facing toward  
the front of the Garmin unit. When the card is in place, close the compartment door, or reinsert  
the rubber weather cap. See your Garmin unit owner’s manual for specific card installation  
instructions.  
Caution  
Insert the connector end of the card into the card slot. Improper installation can result in  
damage to your Garmin unit and can void your warranty.  
Caution  
BlueChart g2 Preprogrammed Data Card Caution: Do NOT use preprogrammed  
BlueChart g2 data cards for saving MapSource maps. The preprogrammed data will  
be lost. Remove any BlueChart g2 cards in your Garmin unit before transferring  
MapSource maps to the unit to avoid losing the preprogrammed data. If you overwrite  
the preprogrammed data on a BlueChart g2 card, Garmin will NOT replace or recover  
the lost data.

Accessing Paper-Chart-Specific Information  
BlueChart g2 cartography provides paper-chart-specific information, such as chart publisher,  
print date, edition date, NTM (Notice to Mariners), correction date, and scale. Additional notes  
are available for the paper charts.  
To view paper-chart-specific information on your Garmin unit:  
Place the unit’s cursor on an open area of the chart, and press ENTER. A  
window shows the chart information and allows you to view additional notes  
about the chart area.  
BlueChart g2 maps stay true to chart presentation and do not modify content. By providing  
paper chart-specific information, you can know exactly from which chart and scale each  
displayed feature is digitized. BlueChart g2 electronic charts are a faithful reproduction of the  
published official paper charts that mariners are required to carry.  
BlueChart g2 data is not seamless. Just like the paper charts from which the data is derived,  
you might observe some discontinuity along chart borders on your Garmin unit. For example,  
if a contour is present on one chart, and not on the adjacent chart, the BlueChart g2 data is  
represented on your Garmin unit the same way.

vIewIng bluechart g2 > understandIng the dIfferences between charts  
Understanding the Differences Between Electronic  
and Paper Charts  
Occasionally, boaters notice that the BlueChart g2 data does not duplicate a particular feature  
shown on the paper chart they are using. Garmin uses the best charts available and carefully  
turns the paper charts into a digital format for display on an electronic screen. If there are  
errors, omissions, or discrepancies on paper, they might occur electronically too.  
On paper charts, sometimes even large features like a breakwater might not be shown clearly  
or at all. Large breakwaters are sometimes not shown on the harbor charts, but are shown on  
coastal charts—or vice versa. These decisions are made by the chart maker, such as NOAA/  
NOS. In some cases, bridges, or other features washed away in storms decades ago, are still  
shown on the paper charts. Recent changes in coastlines are often not reflected on paper charts  
for years.  
The same is true for new marinas and ports. Sometimes, well-known local landmarks might be  
shown so small on the paper chart that they are indistinguishable from surrounding features to  
someone not familiar with the area. In these cases, a feature might not be accurately depicted  
on the electronic chart.  
Reporting Chart Errors  
Even when a feature is shown on the paper chart, it can be overlooked or misspelled during the  
data entry process. These are small problems that can be easily corrected and do not affect the  
quality of the overall BlueChart g2 data.  
If you notice something missing or incorrect in the BlueChart g2 data, first check the best  
available scale paper charts of the area to see how the feature is represented on the paper  
chart. If we have not represented it accurately, or if you know additional information about the  
feature, visit Garmin’s Web site and fill out the online error report form. You can find this form
