This app is your companion for all your chart work: it covers primary chart plotting problems, rhumb line calculations and great circle calculations. Whether you're a pupil, a trainer or a professional navigator, you will actually benefit by using this app. Comprehensive help pages clearly point out the data to be stuffed in, and expected outcomes.

All calculations are executed in a couple of seconds and you get a complete overview of the small print step by step (ideal for checking your handbook work) in addition to a graphical illustration of programs, speeds, distances and positions. You can calculate for different projections: Plane, Mercator or WGS84 (as utilized in ECDIS). See our principle part for more background on projections.

The chart plotting section treats the base issues: course to steer and course over the bottom. Related topics had been added like set and fee of tidal stream, interception course and wheel over point. All calculations have a graphical view, additionally clearly explained within the principle section.

With the rhumb line (loxodrome) calculator you calculate course and distance between a departure position and an arrival position, or discover the estimated place starting from a given departure position and a course and distance to go. The graphical representation is an actual asset.

The great circle calculator (orthodrome) let’s you discover the gap, initial course and final course between a departure and arrival position. It also calculates the vertex and performs some analysis: cross observe analysis, protected latitude analysis and waypoint calculation along the great circle. The calculation particulars show completely different methods like ABC tables, Haversine and Napier. Read the assistance pages rigorously.

Finally with the ETA calculator you establish date and local time of arrival based on voyage knowledge like speed and distance.

Our concept section is again a reference on nautical charts and on basic chart plotting. The introduction is about SOLAS and IMO necessities.

We hope this app will improve your every day work and efficiency!
