How to use the Predictor
Predictor is a tool to estimate own ship future positions and behaviour. It is available on CHART DISPLAY. It
consist of 1 piece of own ships drawn in true scale to successive future positions. The time between future own ship
position is 30 seconds.
The predictor is calculated using current:
• docking speed components:
• transversal bow speed
• transversal stern speed
• longitudinal center speed
• rate of turn
These components are assumed to be stable during prediction period.
The predictor can be used in every steering-state, even when steering without Trackpilot.
Predictor shows drift.
