Publisher Description
WWF Nautical Chart - Use the free nautical chart of the Wismar Bay and Greifswald Bodden.
The app can be used to pinpoint your location in Wismar Bay and the Bay of Greifswald It also shows the particularly sensitive areas and boating rules in the voluntary agreements within the Natura 2000 areas. Users, e.g. people who are fishing, sailing, motor boating, kite-surfing, rowing, kayaking or canoeing, can see on their smartphone or tablet at any time whether they are inside or outside protected areas. It is no longer a valid excuse to say you don’t know where you are!
The app is designed to help you comply with the BOATING RULES. Improved navigation on the water will reduce disturbances in the protected bays and in the breeding and resting areas of waterbirds. It is intended to help ensure that people and nature can co-exist in harmony in the species-rich coastal waters.
Interesting information about NATURE is provided for individual areas and the legal regulations are also available for anyone who wants to know more.
