Software Update: OziExplorer 3.95.4j

OziExplorer is a handy program that allows you to apply the location data from Magellan, Garmin, Lowrance, Eagle, Brunton/Silva and MLR GPS receivers to digital maps. This allows you to plan a route in advance on land and water or indicate the route you have traveled by reading the history of the receiver. In addition, you can also use the program on the go using a laptop. Digital maps in BSB, USGS DRG, ECW, SID, TIF or PNG format, among others, are supported. For an overview of all the possibilities of this program, we refer you to this page. The developers have released version 3.95.4j with the following changes:
