1. Windows Vista and XP supported and full compatibility with earlier versions of MakaiPlan.

   Screenshot of MakaiPlan illustrating the new Geomedia 6.1 transparency functions for GIS layers. The bathymetry data consists of two layers: a high resolution 4-meter near-shore grid overlaid on top of a low resolution 60-meter grid. The text is from a NOAA navigation chart that has been overlaid on top of the bathymetry with a transparency value of 50%.

2. New FME (Feature Manipulation Engine) add-on provides the capability to import over 150 different formats of GIS data, including S57, Digital Nautical Charts, and many ESRI formats.

3. Zoom in/out of the Plan View using the mouse scroll.

4. The Map Legend, Project Explorer, Properties Window, Cable and Cable Body List, and all the Tools are now "tear off' windows that can be displayed outside of the main MakaiPlan window.
