Those of you who use a PC on board with navigation software have asked about being able to log data with your existing software rather than our logging software, or have asked about compatability between our SmartLog software and your chart plotter software. This section answers some of these questions. Generally speaking, if your software can log NMEA data, you can use it to log data for us. You just need to rename the file extension to .TSV before uploading to the server. Also, you need to do the calibration process, which you can either use our software for, or you can use the same worksheet as the hardware loggers use, which you can download.
