The cartography for AvMap aeronautical products includes information from several sources and data providers: NAVTEQ, Jeppesen, Seattle Avionics. For more info visit the Aeronautical Maps page 

It is possible to update each set of data separately: Jeppesen, Terrestrial Background or Street maps by downloading them  directly from the  AvMap Suite.

1. First read How to install and open the Suite

2. How to update maps with the AvMap Suite:

The Suite is able to detect whether your map is up-to-date or if a newer version is available. When a new version is available, a message will appear in the left part of the Suite main menu. You can buy the map only if you are logged in (otherwise the Map update button is disabled):

1.    Click on the Map Update button: the Management page is divided into two parts: the left column shows the maps present in the navigator, while the right column shows the purchased maps (downloaded in the PC). For each map it is displayed Name, version and a status light: if the map us still up-to-date the light is green, if the map is obsolete the light is red, and a “Purchase update” link appears.

2.    To update the map with the latest available version, click on “Purchase update” , the new available map will be displayed

3.    Click on Download.

4. The Shopping Cart page opens up: choose the payment method (Credit Card or PayPal). Remember that map updates must be purchased separately from other items (navigators, accessories, etc.). Click on the “Checkout” button to continue

5. The Shipping Address page opens up: fill the form in order to receive a regular invoice, then click on “Send Order” button

6. The Payment page opens up: you have to fill in your credit card or PayPal data, in order to finalize the purchase

7. Proceed and click on “Download Map”

Problem Resolution:
If a download is not completed because of an interruption of the connection, you will find the purchased map in the Map page of the Suite, and you will be able to download it again.

Loading the new map on your EKP V:
Click on the Map button in the Suite to open the Map Management page.To load the new map:
1. In the left column, click on the Backup button next to the obsolete map (to save a safety backup)
2.    After the back up, the “Delete” button will appear next to each map. Click on “Delete” to free space on your SD card. This way the map will be deleted from the navigator memory card, but it will be saved on your PC, so it will be always possible to use it again.
3.    In the right column click on the button “Install” next to the newly downloaded map. When the process is complete, the new map should be displayed also in the left column of the page (content of your navigator).


ATTENTION: when buying an update, more than one file could be downloaded; in that case it is very important to install all the files for the correct functioning of the navigator.
At the end of the procedure all the new files should be displayed also in the left column of the Map management page.
