I was wondering if OpenPlotter has, or if not could have, the possibility to collect depth data from the boat's depth sounder like the Navionics SonarChart live feature to create free charts for all OpenPlotter users.
I checked the Open Seamap project, where they are collecting user data with data loggers, but it seems not to be very active lately. Also, the data loggers are not available anymore.
And since OpenPlotter has the possibility to connect GPS and depth data on the map that would be a great solution.
Also, I am building an RC boat with an Arduino depth sounder/data logger to map shallow areas of water where I don't want to go with my boat. If possible I would also like to include that data into the chart somehow.
