With the Precision table selected. a quick glance at the screen is enough to verify that the requested maneuver is sufficient to go clear. 5. it is possible to change the predictor characteristics. By selecting the Precision table or the Cross-over table.2 Vector The vector is the simplest type of prediction. This avoids parallax and position errors in calculations and presentation. With prediction. since a ship at sea is normally allowed somewhat more space to move. where the predictors are often too sensitive. One of the prerequisites for the predictor is the “virtual antenna”. the program’s filter characteristics are adapted to use for navigation in narrow waters. The length of the vector represents the ship’s voyage during the set time period for the vector. and is particularly appreciated at poor visibility. where all tendencies must show quickly and clearly.3 Predictor predictor. 5. All predictor presentation is designed to show the trend clearly with simple graphical elements without concealing the chart picture. which is the very essence of all navigation and particularly useful in difficult waters with poor visibility.Page 78 5 5. strong winds and rapid-flowing water.2012 August 2012 . too. the filters are adapted to give a more stable eGlobe User Manual v 07. which makes it possible to correct the physical placement of the antenna and present the antenna in the ship’s turn center. The vector is suitable for use in open waters. which the ship’s speed The predictor is a more advanced type of graphically shows the integrated result of and course over ground and the rate of turn.08. With the Cross-over table selected. is shown as an indication of the leeway. which only shows speed and course over ground. The predictor function is primarily intended for archipelago navigation and harbor approach. which may be considerable during a narrow turn with a strong side wind or flowing water.08. 5. The function is primarily intended for archipelago navigation. Together. 5. strong winds and rapid-flowing water. the shadows and the predictor clearly show if the ship’s motion would diverge due to errors in the positioning or the compass. this predictor also shows the ship’s sweep area.5 Extra Vectors Extra vector show the ship’s fore-and-aft and abeam speed and the rate of turn (ROT).Page 79 predictor and calmer numeric data.2012 August 2012 .4 Full Predictor The full predictor is a highly advanced graphical presentation of the integrated result of the ship’s heading projection. In addition to the turn prediction. but shadows have a close relationship to prediction and are therefore described here. The shadows show the history in the form of a selectable number of ship silhouettes that are drawn at a selectable interval. eGlobe User Manual v 07. steering and putting in. The characteristics of the full predictor can be influenced with the Precision and Cross-over tables. speed and course over ground and rate of turn. harbor approach. They make it possible for the navigator to check visually that the prediction is correct. where they offer a very clear graphical illustration of the totality of the ship’s motion. and is particularly appreciated at poor visibility. 5.6 Shadows The presentation of shadows is not a prediction. The corner vectors are especially useful for very large ships during complicated maneuvers at extremely low speed.

Emphasized Show the trail with thicker points. Depth Colors Shows the depth in the form of points of different colors, where the color of the point represents the depth from the connected echo sounder. There are two different color schemes, one for shallow waters and one for deep waters. The color scheme may be changed freely in the system set-up to suit individual requirements. Depth Figures Shows the depth as depth numbers from the connected echo sounder. If an exact position determination of the depth recording is required, the virtual antenna must be moved out to the point where the echo-sounder sensor is placed. N.B. The trail setting does not affect the recording of data from echo sounder. The trail display type can be changed freely at replay. Recording of current depth can be corrected for draft and mean water level in the system setup; the depth saved in the recording will thereby be the true depth.
