4.18.2 Setting up a Survey Route
Survey Route
Click this button, either on the Main tool bar or on the Navigation window tool
bar, to set up and place a survey route over a charted area in the Navigation
Window. The Survey Route dialog box will open as shown in Figure 4-69. The
survey route is used to set up surveys where a survey grid is not the best pattern. A
survey route is intended for rivers or coastlines where a free form survey is better.
Use the following scroll boxes to set up the survey route:
• First line heading
• Maximum layback
•
Cross track error
The cross track error is the course error margin that the ship needs to hold when
running a line and is shown as dashed lines on the survey route.
