BSB marine charts

Hello


One of the topics of the forum mentions the possibility to use marine BSB calibrated raster files within Locus through a complicated process involving a CPN utility, an Oruxmaps utility and Ozi Explorer (ouf !).


The software MAPC2MAPC is supposed to be able to convert the BSB charts to Locus compatible charts on a Windows machine.


It will be nice to be able to import BSB charts directly to Locus without having to use a third party utility.


Thanks

I was already searching for some relevant information and seems that only public library for these files is here http://libbsb.sourceforge.net/. There`s also a description which is even more important.


Anyway, from description looks it`s possible to do this, but


1) I cannot find any terms of use for this format, so I`m not sure, it`s possible to use it.


2) implementing should take quite a lot of time and I`m not sure how much people use and want to use this format, so votes will say more ...
