Easy Routing calculates the shortest safe Route between two chosen points. Please note
that the calculation of complex Routes can be time consuming.
that the calculation of complex Routes can be time consuming.
With Easy Routing given a Start Point and End Point the CPN Series Chart Plotter will
automatically propose the shortest safe Route connecting the two points. The calculation
of the Route depends of a few parameters which define your boat and the precautions you
want to keep for navigating. The parameters are boat length and width, keel depth, mast
height, and a safe distance indicator. While calculating the Route the Easy Routing will avoid
obstacles (such as Nav-Aids, Rocks, Obstructions, Shallow Waters, Bridges) and draw the
final and proposed Route with different colors highlighting the possible hazards:

obstacles (such as Nav-Aids, Rocks, Obstructions, Shallow Waters, Bridges) and draw the
final and proposed Route with different colors highlighting the possible hazards:
· RED color usually indicates a condition of unsafe navigation: for example a Route is
crossing a very shallow water.
· YELLOW color shows legs where maximum attention should be taken: for example a
bridge is present along the leg but its vertical clearance is not known from data.
· In case of GREEN color the leg is considered safe: there are no known hazards along
the leg considering the parameters used.
· In certain cases, due to the complexity of the environment at, or surrounding, the Start/
End point, Easy Routing will shift the point and place it in a safer location. This leg is
indicated with GRAY color.
indicated with GRAY color.
Please note that, due to the input data, it might not be possible for Easy Routing to avoid
crossing hazard areas to reach the final destination (and, in this case, producing RED or
YELLOW legs). In this case the Captain should review the proposed Route and, if required,
modify it accordingly.

The accuracy of Easy Routing is limited by the availability of electronic charts loaded on your navigation
system and the accuracy of original source material used in producing such charts. Always remember that
you should navigate with the most detailed and up-to-date chart data available from Jeppesen, and that
new information from National Hydrographic Offices may render your charts obsolete at any time.
Easy Routing will now calculate and save the best suggested Route between your Start and End points
based on parameters set by you. Area between Start and End points is contained into a 100Nm side
square, see image below:

As the navigator of your vessel, you are responsible for reviewing the suggested Route against the official
publications and situational awareness. You must edit and/or approve the suggested Route before using
it for navigation purposes.
