Pre-Loaded Cartography
Garmin's basemaps are the simplest maps available on a Garmin unit and are typically included with the unit from the time of purchase. They have one of several types of data depending on the purpose of the GPS – in this case, marine data. Basemaps are included with all "GPS" models.
Garmin's Worldwide Marine Basemap provides worldwide shaded relief coverage, including oceans, seas, lakes greater than 5 sq miles and rivers down to 100 ft wide.
It includes international and state political boundaries, and displays worldwide principal cities with population greater than 20K, major interstates and/or principal highways, political boundaries (state and international borders), large airports, and time zone information
Worldwide Marine Basemap also shows NOAA Weather Polygons for the U.S.
Build Your Marine System
NMEA 2000 networking and the Garmin Marine Network allow you to easily build your full marine electronics suite — from radar and autopilots to cameras, instruments and forward-looking sonar — controlled from your chartplotter and shared across multiple screens.
In addition, Garmin's exclusive OneHelm™ system coordinates many third-party manufactured onboard marine products to bring full control of systems — such as digital switching, lighting, stabilization and more — conveniently to your chartplotter screen.
Full Connectivity
The GPSMAP 8412 chartplotter has a premium-performance processor that enables fast map drawing, superior networking, video distribution and more.
Built-in Wi-Fi technology lets you pair with the free ActiveCaptain® app for access to OneChart™, smart notifications when paired with a compatible smartphone, Garmin Quickdraw™ community data and more.

In addition, built-in ANT wireless technology connects you directly to Garmin's quatix® marine watch, gWind™ Wireless 2 transducer and wireless remote controls.
SmartMode Station Controls
Networked sonar, radar, cameras, media and digital switching can be independent or incorporated into SmartMode station controls. With SmartMode, everything is designed to give you quick, one-touch access to the information you need to ease high-stress situations such as docking.
