The default installation of Capella includes a variety of features which are available for your use at the click of a mouse. You can manage chart cells,  switch between daylight and night colors, select traditional or modern symbols and show  a few importent symbols, a normal set of symbols or all symbols.  It 's all up to you to decide how much information you want on screen.

From a dreged part of New York harbor area. Daylight colors.

Without installing any additional software, the default  free installation with the sample chart data is designed to demonstrate  techniques for displaying information and content and to set up sailing routes on top of chart cell surveys. It is a virtual sampler of some of the different tools and techniques made possible by the Capella system. Since our goal is to show you ways to use the system, we have included all normal functions except GPS and AIS connections.

Software has been developed based on Microsofts C/C++/MFC libraries in a Visual Studio environment. A  number of classes have been implemented to declare and define functions and procedures to handle importent tasks such as projections, I/O to/from datacells, graphics and user interfacing.
