Omnia PRO: C-MAP Advanced Mapping Features Explained

Published: Updated:

Omnia CEO Matt Johnson breaks down how C-Map works in Omnia PRO with Polish Pete.

All Featured Products

    In this detailed video from Omnia Fishing, CEO Matt Johnson and fishing expert Polish Pete introduce exciting new mapping features available through Omnia PRO. This segment focuses particularly on the sophisticated C-Map Social Layers offered in collaboration with Lowrance. Here's what you need to know:

    Key Features of C-Map Social Layers:

    • Contour Lines: Essential for understanding the underwater topography, these lines are crucial for locating fish habitats and are derived from sonar logs uploaded by Lowrance customers.
    • Bottom Hardness: This layer helps anglers identify the type of lakebed, which is vital for predicting fish behavior. Hard surfaces reflect sonar signals differently than softer ones, affecting where fish may congregate.
    • Vegetation Mapping: Knowing where vegetation is thick can help you find prime fishing spots, as these areas provide shelter and food for fish. These maps reflect vegetation at specific moments, offering a snapshot of underwater habitats.

    Benefits for Anglers:

    • Precision and Accuracy: These maps are updated with real user data, ensuring higher accuracy than traditional DNR maps. This can be especially useful in waters with complex features.
    • Comprehensive Toolkit: Combined with Omnia’s existing Navionics layers, anglers have a robust set of tools to enhance their fishing strategy.
    • Dynamic Updates: The social mapping approach means that the information evolves based on actual angler experiences and data contributions, keeping the maps fresh and relevant.

    How It Works:

    Anglers contribute to the mapping database by submitting their sonar logs to the C-Map platform. These logs are processed and integrated to produce detailed maps that reflect real-world conditions rather than outdated or generic data.
