Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maritime navigation has rapidly developed since the publication of the last edition of the title with methods of global position fixing for shipping becoming standardized. As in the previous two editions, this edition will provide a sound basis for the understanding of modern navigation systems and brings the student or professional up-to-date with the latest developments in technology and the growing standardization of maritime navigation techniques. Developed with close scrutiny from the US Merchant Marine Academy and the major maritime navigation centres in the UK, out-dated techniques have been replaced by an expanded section on the now standard Navstar GPS systems and the Integrated Nav. In addition, a new chapter on the application of electronic charts will also be included, as well as problems at the end of each chapter with worked solutions.

Download or read book Introduction to Electronic Chart Navigation With an Annotated ECDIS Chart No 1 written by David Burch and published by Starpath Publications. This book was released on 2022-08-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two types of electronic charts: raster navigational charts (RNC) and electronic navigational charts (ENC). RNC are exact copies of paper charts and their use underway comes naturally to navigators accustomed to paper charts. All traditional paper charts, however, and their RNC are being discontinued by NOAA. Many are gone already and all will be gone in a year or so. ENC (also called vector charts), on the other hand, include much more information than RNC; they allow user-selected display options that enhance safety and efficiency; and they are easier to keep up to date. But they do not look like traditional charts, and they do not behave like traditional charts. Navigation with ENC is fundamentally different from navigation with paper charts or RNC. Electronic charting benefits all mariners, professional and recreational, large vessels and small, power and sail, racing and cruising. The unique information in this book should help mariners in any of these categories master the use of ENC to enhance their safety and performance underway. There are many virtues of ENC, but to take advantage of these, a new approach to "reading charts" is called for. This book explains and illustrates the process. From the Forward to the Second Edition Two primary factors have taken place since the first edition that affect the content of this book. Foremost is the ongoing NOAA program to redesign the layout of all ENC to make them more consistent amongst themselves and with the ENC from other nations. This is a major improvement. The process is called rescheming. The most apparent changes are the shapes and coverages of the individual charts, which, when reschemed, become regular and consistent. Chart scales and depth contour conventions are also improved, plus we get a larger (more detailed) compilation scale for many areas. On top of these changes, the USCG has just completed a call for comments on the proposed new ruling that vessels must have some electronic chart viewer on board to effectively read the official ENC. In other words, we are at the moment when ENC have gone from an optional substitute for paper charts to being a required method of navigation. With all of this going on, we can see why NOAA decided it was time to take on the daunting task of rescheming all of the US ENC. We have added an appendix on rescheming to cover the details of the changes and how we recognize them in conjunction with what we now call the legacy ENC that exist before rescheming. The full conversion will take some years to complete, so we will be using the legacy ENC layouts for quite a while to come. The interpretation and basic use of ENC does not change with the reschemed charts. When a topic comes up in the book that is affected by rescheming, we make note of the changes with a reference to the appendix. There is also a short appendix on the new NOAA custom chart program (NCC); another on Inland ENC, the US Army Corps of Engineers charts for the Western Rivers; and one emphasizing a recommended vessel icon set up for navigation in strong wind or current. An overview of the next generation ENC called S-100 has also been added as an appendix. The second primary factor that has led to updates in this edition was the preparation for and first experiences we have had with our new training course on Electronic Chart Navigation. Many sections throughout the book have been enhanced to reflect the practical experience we gained. Interactions with students first learning a new subject is an invaluable resource we are lucky to have. Topics with more extensive updates include: coverage of the Quality of data object and Zone of Confidence attributes; treatment of magnetic variation; use of safety contour and safety depth; plus a new section on the use of encrypted S-63 charts with a specific example using the newly free ENC from New Zealand.
Download or read book Introduction to Modern Navigation Systems written by Esmat Bekir and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2007 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emerging technology of very inexpensive inertial sensors is available for navigation as never before. The book lays the analytical foundation for understanding and implementing the navigation equations. It starts by demystifying the central theme of the frame rotation using such algorithms as the quaternions, the rotation vector and the Euler angles. After developing navigation equations, the book introduces the computational issues and discusses the physical aspects that are tied to implementing these equations. The book then explains alignment techniques.Introduction to Modern Navigation Systems offers an efficient algorithm for polar navigation. It also shows how to enhance the performance of the inertial system when aided by the Global Positioning System. It is an appropriate textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students in aeronautical and electrical engineering. It could also be used as a reference book for practitioners in the field.

Download or read book The Adlard Coles Book of Electronic Navigation written by Tim Bartlett and published by Adlard Coles. This book was released on 2005-05-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Adlard Coles Book of Navigation is aimed at anyone with an interest in navigating small craft, but particularly at those working towards RYA Day Skipper, Yachtmaster, Motor Cruising or Advanced Powerboat certificates, or attending the RYA Radar course. Electronics have gained such widespread acceptance over the last decade that even a modest family cruiser is likely to have an electronic navigation capability comparable with that of a small warship of twenty years ago. Using plain English to strip away the jargon, this book sets out to demystify the technology behind modern marine electronics, and to explain how the various systems work and how to get the best out of the equipment available. The Adlard Coles Book of Electronic Navigation is set to become the definitive book on the subject.
