Customizing Displayed Map Items
The display of various map elements can be customized to reduce visual clutter. These
preferences are located in MAIN MENU > MAP > MENU > MAP ITEMS. Use these settings to
specify the highest zoom level that the various features are displayed.
Regardless of the max zoom level setting for each of the airspace types that can be
adjusted in the MAP ITEMS menu, SkyView will only display airspace segments at
and below the altitude chosen (in feet) in the SHOW AIRSPACES BELOW option.
Traffic
When a device that can receive traffic information is installed and configured, traffic can be
displayed on the Map Page to improve situational awareness. See the SkyView System
Installation Guide for details on how to turn the display of traffic on and off.
Figure 90 - Traffic Display on Map Page
SkyView can receive traffic information from a variety of devices. These currently include the
SV-ADSB-470 (US Only), TIS traffic supplied by the SV-XPNDR-26X or Garmin GTX 330/330ES
Transponders, passive traffic from the Zaon XRX, FLARM (predominantly in Europe) and the
NavWorx ADS-B receivers.
Traffic is displayed on the Map Page in the location that it is reported to be in by the connected
traffic device.
