ARPA
MODULE
Can be used only if the PC is interfaced with
an ARPA Radar. ARPA targets are boats identified
and followed calculating their routes and speeds,
so as to check if the course followed may cause
a collision with another vessel. |
TIDAL
STREAM MODULE
Allows the user to compute and display (numerically
and graphically) offshore tidal stream directions
and speeds for North East Atlantic seas. Information
provided by the software allows plotting a route,
defining the corrections to apply to balance
the stream effects.
User can also ask this module to work out the
shortest passage time. |
“ROUTAGE”
MODULE
Allows the route planning according to
the weather forecast (wind speed and direction)
and the vessel characteristics (polar diagram).
The software is available as an option for GEONAV
WIND only, and requires the METEO MODULE.
|
Besides all the functions typical
of the GEONAV POWER, the GEONAV WIND, designed
for sailboats, reads
the data coming from the wind station and shows them
according to the boat’s polar curves. Moreover,
the graphical data presentation allows tuning the
boat’s performance.
