    Lowrance map on an SD card

    My friend gave me an sd card with a Lowrance map on it of a local lake. I have an sd card reader but i can't open the map file on my home computer. Do i need Lowrance software to open this map?

    What Lowrance map is it? Is it a homemade map or a commercial C-Map product?

    If it is one he downloaded from C-Map Genesis (private or social map) it will only work in the unit it was created to be used in. They are encrypted specifically for the unit you designate during the creation process it will be displayed on.
