NEW OruxMapsBlue navigation app with AIS

The beta version of OruxMapsBlue navigation app has just been released.
This is a dedicated navigation app under development.

It accepts .kap maps as well as most land-based maps.
It is also capable of receiving and displaying AIS NMEA data from external
sources,but also from own AIS receiver via Bluetooth.

A basic weather service is also built-in.

The next beta version is under work and will be released very shortly.

Improving all the time.. now displaying AIS targets with much more information.

It can also display targets from own ship AIS with bluetooth connection.

OruxMaps Blue can import predicted routes as a .kml file using latest GRIB info
from qtVts. See attached.
