The book covers how radar works, how to tune the receiver, and how controls and plotting functions affect the information the navigator sees on the screen.<\/p>\n<p>Particular attention is given to the limitations of radar, ARPA, and plotting aids. AIS is treated both as a system and as a tool in daily service on board. The goal is to provide the reader with a better basis for interpreting information and assessing what the equipment can actually convey.<\/p>\n<p>The book describes, among other things, <strong>parallel indexing and concentric indexing<\/strong> when monitoring vessel movements in confined waters. It places radar and AIS within the context of collision avoidance and includes plotting exercises using both traditional methods and target vectors from electronic displays.<\/p>\n<p>This is professional literature for cadets, watchkeeping officers, and for instruction in navigation and bridge work. It is also relevant for experienced navigators wishing to review the interplay between technical understanding and seamanlike judgment.<\/p>\n<p>The publication is in <strong>English<\/strong> and is published by Brown, Son &#038; Ferguson Ltd.
