How do you and others mean to use these charts? Laptop in the plane?
Just for reference during flight planning? Print them and take them along?


Yes.

I'm mostly trying to make the data easily acessible so that others can
be creative. I think they'll be used in ways I haven't even considered.
Already I know of one person using them for flight planning, in-flight
moving map display, and tracking search and rescue operations.


Well I have to say I'm not sure how they could be used as a moving map.
Wouldn't they need to be vector graphics with the some reference?
Or is it possible to create geo references and plot courses and
positions?

I guess I'm thinking out loud but if you know it'd be great to hear how
they are being used. i.e. the technical side
It's really amazing how clear the images are
