Important Notes:

Update SkyView's software BEFORE updating any other databases or files that are on this page.

Aviation, Obstacle, and Base Map Databases

Note: The MAP menu will not appear unless an aviation database is installed.


SkyView contains a 30 flight hour free trial of the SkyView Navigation Mapping Software. The Navigation Mapping Software must be purchased in order to continue to use it after the trial period ends. Only one Navigation Mapping Software license purchase is required per airplane ($500). Licenses can be purchased from Dynon Avionics or any authorized dealers.

Data for US customers is provided by Dynon Avionics for no fee. Worldwide customers can purchase data directly from Jeppesen or PocketFMS.

The following databases add aviation and obstacle data to SkyView. To display this data, you must have an active GPS signal, a Navigation Mapping Software license (or unexpired 30 flight hour trial), and the below databases installed.

Dynon Aviation Data (US only): We distribute official US FAA aviation data on the FAA standard 28 day cycle. This is the most comprehensive data available for the US, including smaller airports and AFD remarks not available in other databases. And it's free!

Dynon Obstacle Data (US only): We distribute official US FAA obstacle data on the FAA standard 56 day cycle. And it's free!

EMS Sensor Definitions (CHANGED AT 3.2)

This file updates the sensor definitions and characterizations used by the EMS. There were a few improvements made to sensor characterizations at the version 3.0 update, so everyone should download this version if they have not already done so. Click the link below to download it.

If you are having issues downloading this file please Right Click and select Save As.

EMS Engine Setups (Optional)

Dynon Avionics has created pin mappings and screen layouts for the most common engine types used by customers. If you haven’t already set up your engine page, these files will give you a great “head start”. If you have already set up your own EMS, you probably should skip this step, as it will overwrite the pin mappings and layouts you have already created. To download these files, click the link below. A page with the files will open in a new browser window or tab.

Terrain Databases

There are three resolutions of terrain that all need to be installed to show terrain properly at all map range levels. SkyView Systems come preloaded with worldwide Low-Res terrain, plus US only High-Res terrain. High-Res terrain for other regions can be selected and downloaded from this page.

High Resolution Terrain - Worldwide by Region:

Go to the page below to download high resolution terrain for your region if you are outside the US.

Low Resolution Terrain - Worldwide:

Low Resolution Terrain comes pre-loaded on all SkyView displays. If it is accidentally removed, it can be downloaded here.

Very Low Resolution Terrain - Worldwide (Added at 3.0):

Version 3.0 adds a new very low resolution terrain database to enable better terrain display at large zoom ranges. The below file is pre-installed on SkyView displays that have 3.0 or newer software shipped from Dynon. All other displays should have this file loaded to it:
