The LCM export only has support for a limited set of types. Feature types that are not supported for LCM
export will not be added to the generated LCM file, so it is important to use a built-in type (or a type with a
custom MP_TYPE value that is supported) when exporting to the LCM format. The following is a basic list of
the types of features that are supported:
• Area Types
♦ Lakes
♦ Oceans
♦ Parks
♦ Swamp/Wetland
♦ Urban Areas
• Line Types
♦ Political Boundaries
♦ Contours
♦ Railroads
♦ Roads
♦ Trails
♦ Streams/Rivers
• Point Types
♦ Airport
♦ Boat Ramp
♦ Campground
♦ Car Repair
♦ City
♦ Church
♦ Department Store/Shopping
♦ Gas Station/Fuel
♦ Hospital
♦ Navaids/Buoys
♦ Pharmacy
♦ Post Office
♦ Restaurant
♦ School
♦ Water Features (Spring, Stream, Lake Name)
♦ Wrecks
As the Lowrance format contains some type settings that cannot be captured with just a simple Global Mapper
type selection or through the assignment of a MP_TYPE attribute, you can also use a LMC_TYPE attribute to
provide a specific Lowrance type to use for some types. Here is a partial list of the supported LMC_TYPE
attribute values:
• Depth Contour Line Types
♦ 0x50 - black, thickness 1
♦ 0x51 - blue, thickness 1
♦ 0x52 - dark aqua, thickness 1
♦ 0x53 - dotted aqua, thickness 1
♦ 0x54 - white, thickness 1
♦ 0x55 - black, thickness 2
♦ 0x56 - blue, thickness 2
♦ 0x57 - dark aqua, thickness 2
♦ 0x58 - dotted aqua, thickness 2
