This document outlines the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) performance standards for rate of turn indicators (ROTI) installed on ships. The ROTI must be capable of indicating port and starboard turns, have a means to verify operation, and use a center-zero analog dial indicator with positive indications for port and starboard turns. The scale must allow measurement of turns between -30 and 30 degrees per minute and meet accuracy standards for deviations from the actual turn rate under various ship motions and speeds.
