OLEX releases version 16.4

Norwegian based OLEX AS, the manufacturer of complete systems for navigation, plotting, 3D seafloor and fish mapping, is pleased to announce that the latest software version OLEX 16.4 was released and is available as a free download or through your local OLEX dealer for an upgrade of existing systems.

The improvements introduced with this latest software version are mainly focused on the OLEX OS1 fish-mapping echosounder and allow:

• The OS1 may now be used by LINO, a lighter version of OLEX for navigation and plotting.
• Better display of time since URLs were run.
• The empty pings, of the OS1, are now indicated in solid red.

Moreover, there were some bug fixes related to corrupted OS1 data.

After years of R&D and testing, OLEX AS has developed and keeps refining the most comprehensive seafloor topography mapping system available on the market. OLEX systems are based on Linux and are considered to be the most stable systems of their kind available on the commercial market. Speed, flexibility, and user-friendliness are important keywords to explain their success.

OLEX systems can use official and unofficial vector charts, in S57, shape and SOSI format, from Hydrographic Offices and commercial vendors. The navigation charts are displayed alongside the collected seabed data and the chart visualization software will always strive to achieve a clear and informative chart image and prevent the screen from filling up with unnecessary information, by displaying only information relevant to the current zoom scale. Zooming and chart display are fast, easy and seamless.
