AIS and ARPA target information is graphically visible on the map and it is also possible to display the target data such as position, speed, direction, distance and bearing from the ownship.
Danger zones
It is possible to build and set several kinds of danger zones:
polygonal, sector, circular. Disanchorage radius and bearing point angle are set by the user.
Echosounder Information
A special graph obtained from the echosounder data is displayed on a dialog box to show the depth of the water under the ship along the navigation course.
Route Planning
With GEM ECDIS the operator can plan a route, setting the position of waypoints as well as the length and the angle of the route legs.
Furthermore it is possible to set a maximum allowed deviation for the out-of-route alarm and to assign names to the waypoints.
