Garmin has added South Pacific coverage to its Garmin Navigation Database, including Australia, New Zealand, and surrounding countries. Previously, the database had been available to aircraft owners and operators in the Americas and Europe.
The Olathe, Kansas company is offering the database on a range of its products, including integrated flight decks, navigators, flight displays, and portables. Updates can be purchased individually or through bundle options or OnePak subscriptions.
“Customers now have the option for a convenient and comprehensive all-Garmin database solution that provides pilots with the information they need at a cost-effective price,” said Carl Wolf, Garmin v-p of aviation sales, marketing, programs, and support.
The database provides information for navigation throughout the departure, en route, arrival, and approach with coverage in more than 20 countries and for 2,500 airports. In addition, the database is customizable for region-specific needs, including verified aircraft landing areas in Australia and visual reporting points in New Zealand to assist with VFR navigation.
