Humminbird Gives Anglers Ability to Share AutoChart Live Map Intelligence with New Service – AutoChart LiveShare
RACINE, Wis., July 10, 2018 – Today Humminbird announces a new extension of its AutoChart Live mapping capability – AutoChart LiveShare. LiveShare is a free online service that allows Humminbird users to download AutoChart Live mapping information from others and add it to their own map collection, as well as upload their own AutoChart Live sonar data to a global community. AutoChart LiveShare reinforces Humminbird’s commitment to providing enhanced mapping capabilities to anglers around the world.
Launched in 2015, AutoChart Live gives anglers the ability to map the depth, vegetation and changing bottom hardness of their favorite body of water. This data can be used to add details to existing LakeMaster maps, or obtain information on bodies of water unavailable in the Humminbird LakeMaster collection. Until now, the only way anglers could share this valuable information was by physically copying the data from an AutoChart Zero Line Map Card. LiveShare changes this dramatically.
How it works is simple – Anglers go to the AutoChart LiveShare website – https://chartselect.
“AutoChart Live puts the power in anglers’ hands to map the depths of uncharted waters,” said Ray Schaffart, Humminbird brand manager. “Adding the capability to share this information with fellow anglers around the world creates a community that is the backbone to real-time map availability. It also makes our technology shareable among millions of Humminbird owners, whether they fish freshwater or saltwater.”
Anglers can easily create an AutoChart LiveShare account or, if they have a ChartSelect account, they can sign in today. In order to utilize the LiveShare service, you must have a HELIX 12, 10 or 9 model, a GPS-equipped HELIX 7/5 G2/G2N, or any SOLIX or ONIX model, along with an AutoChart Zero Line map card. For users that do not have a compatible unit, you can still participate by uploading Humminbird track files and viewing LiveShare information on the website.
