Manufacturer Description |
***Save $200 with the purchase a Bluechart g2 Vision card and a qualifying Garmin chartplotter! Click here for the rebate form.***
The GPSMAP 531 is a compact chartplotter that features an ultra-bright 5” QVGA color display along with an improved high-speed digital design for increased map drawing and panning speeds. It’s ready to go with a built-in, satellite-enhanced basemap preloaded with U.S. Inland Lakes and an easy-to-use interface designed to help you navigate the open waters with ease. The GPSMAP 531 also accepts BlueChart® g2 Vision cards for added features and functionality such as high-resolution satellite imagery, 3D views and Auto Guidance technology.
Navigate the Lake
The GPSMAP 531 comes ready to go with preloaded U.S. Inland Lake map data. For areas outside the U.S., the GPSMAP 531 has a worldwide basemap with satellite images in place of more traditional maps. The GPSMAP 531 also comes standard with a high-sensitivity GPS receiver for superior satellite tracking and quicker acquisition times. And with an SD card slot, it’s easy to add additional maps without connecting to a computer.
Add Sonar
Where applicable, the sounder version, GPSMAP 531s, comes with a powerful dual-beam transducer that clearly illustrates depth contours, fish targets and structures whether you’re fishing in freshwater or off the coast. The GPSMAP 531 and GPSMAP 531s are also NMEA 0183-certified for easy connectivity with sensors, instruments and future marine offerings.
Add Extras with BlueChart g2 Vision
With the optional BlueChart g2 Vision SD card, you can add a whole new dimension of exceptional features to your chartplotter.
- 3D Mariner's and Fish Eye view provides you with a 3-dimensional perspective of map information, both above and below the waterline
- High-resolution satellite images and aerial photographs help you orient yourself in unfamiliar areas
- Auto Guidance technology searches through all relevant charts to create a route you can actually follow - one that avoids obstacles, shallow water, buoys and other obstructions
