Methods of Shore Observations for Horizontal position FixingNzar Braim
This report is about the methods of observations of the shore for fixing the horizontal
control position, I will try to explain the hydrographic engineering science within its
advantages and applications and the most common methods used in hydrography
briefly.
We knew that the depths of the water bodies at various points and will be changed
and unstable so Depths are determined by making sounding which is determining the
depth of water from the stationary boat and the positions of sounding can be determined
either from the boat from shore or both of them.
If we want to make a survey Project or let's say if a surveyor wants to make a survey
project for hydrographic surveying and observation for this project so he needs
many processes many preparations many techniques many tools equipment and
So For establishing horizontal control and vertical control points, we have many
methods either offshore or onshore or both I mean from a boat or shore or both
consequently, I wrote a report about this important t subject and In this report I
mention all methods and explain the three applicable and using methods that have
been used in hydrographic surveying and also mention which method is good or
better than the other and the advantages and disadvantages of these methods.At the end
my aim for preparing this report is to show the importance of hydrographic surveying
and how these methods can be used and all require and need for these methods and
also mention all steps, all equations that must be used for these methods.
Finally most important point I should mention it is a co-ordinated system or finding the
coordinates .the surveyor deals with the coordinates, so we make all these processes,
learning all methods, equations, formulas, steps, establishing control points, all above
just for one purpose which is finding the or calculating coordinate, and the most
the important thing in coordinate is accuracy, avoiding errors and uncertainty.
The document discusses various types of charts used for ocean navigation including routeing charts, wave charts, ice charts, and current charts. Routeing charts are published monthly for major ocean basins and contain information about winds, temperatures, currents, shipping routes and hazards. Wave charts show historic and predicted wave heights and directions. Ice charts indicate ice coverage and are used to plan safe routes. Current charts display ocean circulation patterns to aid efficient voyages. Additional sources of marine weather data include Navtex broadcasts.
ARPA (Automatic Radar Plotting Aid) is a marine radar system that can automatically track objects and calculate their course, speed, closest point of approach, and time to closest approach to assess collision risk. It processes radar data more quickly than conventional radar. The ARPA is connected to the radar and extracts data to display tracked target vectors and collision assessment information directly on the radar display. It can track up to 20 targets and provides readouts and alarms of key tracking data to alert the user to potentially threatening targets.
This document discusses procedures for mooring and anchoring a ship. It describes various deck fittings and equipment used such as cleats, bitts, bollards, chocks and mooring lines. It outlines the steps for mooring to a pier, including leading lines through chocks and securing them to bollards. Safety precautions and standard commands for line handlers are provided. The document also describes procedures for anchoring such as readying the anchor and windlass and letting go the anchor. Key terms related to anchoring such as hawsepipe, chain pipe and flukes are defined.
GPS satellites are positioned at an altitude of 20,200 km above the Earth's surface, which falls within medium Earth orbits. This height provides global coverage with a smaller number of satellites and allows earth-based transmitters and receivers to use modest sized antennas and lower transmission powers.
Gross tonnage refers to the total enclosed volume of a ship, while net tonnage refers to the cargo-carrying capacity. Both are determined by measuring volumes and applying formulas, and are dimensionless numbers rather than units of mass.
Radar performance can be ascertained using a performance monitor. 10 cm or S-band radar is generally better for long range scanning and in heavy rain due to less clutter.
Midterm Ship Handling and Manuevering 31 Mar 22-1.pptxNieLReSpiCiO
Here are some other dangers that could be encountered in shallow water:
- Reduced underkeel clearance putting the ship at risk of grounding if the actual depth is less than charts indicate.
- Restricted ability to maneuver and avoid hazards due to small clearance between hull and sea bed.
- Increased risk of contact with submerged/semi-submerged objects not shown on charts such as wrecks.
- Possibility of sudden changes in seabed depth or composition that could cause the ship to list or temporarily lose propulsion or steering.
- Increased wash and waves from other vessels potentially impacting the handling of the ship.
- Stronger set of tides and currents in restricted areas influencing
This document provides an introduction and overview of the symbols, abbreviations, and terms used on NOAA and NGA nautical charts. It describes the purpose and layout of the chart, including features related to topography, hydrography, navigation aids, and marginal notes. Guidance is given for interpreting soundings, heights, shorelines, and other elements depicted on the charts.
This document provides instructions for plotting radar targets over a 6 minute interval to determine course, speed, closest point of approach (CPA), and time to CPA (TCPA) of other vessels. It outlines the steps to mark initial bearing and range, draw target movement line, transfer own vessel movement, calculate distances traveled, and determine other vessel's course, speed, CPA and TCPA. It concludes that in this example, if no course or speed changes are made, there will be a collision at a CPA of 0.0 nautical miles at 12:09:48, and that the observer is the give-way vessel in a crossing situation.
This document outlines performance standards adopted by the International Maritime Organization for Automatic Radar Plotting Aids (ARPAs). It establishes standards for ARPAs' detection, acquisition, tracking, display, operational warnings, data requirements, trial maneuvers, accuracy, connections with other equipment, performance tests, and sea and ground stabilization capabilities. The standards are intended to improve collision avoidance at sea by reducing observer workload and providing continuous, accurate situation evaluation.
IALA Buoyage System and Visual Aids to NavigationLearnmarine
The document summarizes the International Association of Lighthouse Authorities (IALA) buoyage system and visual aids to navigation. The system provides six types of marks to indicate navigational features: lateral marks for channel edges, cardinal marks for hazards, isolated danger marks, safe water marks, special marks, and emergency wreck marking. Lateral marks are the only ones that differ between regions A and B. Region A uses red buoys with red tops for port sides and green buoys with green cone tops for starboard sides. Other types of marks include safe water marks with red and white stripes, special purpose yellow buoys, and emergency wreck marks with blue and yellow flashing lights.
An ECDIS is an electronic system that can display navigational charts and position information to serve as an alternative to paper charts. It integrates data from GPS, radar, and AIS to determine a vessel's position in relation to land, hazards, and navigation aids. The IMO requires all ships to carry electronic charts and ECDIS to meet chart carriage requirements. When planning a passage using ECDIS, the navigator must ensure the vessel has up-to-date chart licenses, enter vessel parameters, set the safety contour and domain, and create a route by placing waypoints while checking for hazards. ECDIS is then used during the voyage to monitor position and trigger alarms if safety parameters are exceeded.
1. The document discusses the operational use of radar and ARPA, including fundamental radar principles, safe distances, radiation hazards, radar components, factors affecting performance, and interpretation of radar pictures.
2. It describes how radar works by transmitting electromagnetic pulses that bounce off objects and return, allowing the distance to be calculated. On ships, radar is used for collision avoidance and navigation assistance.
3. Key factors that influence radar detection range and resolution are discussed, such as wavelength, antenna height, target size, weather conditions, and more. Interpreting radar images requires experience due to effects like radar shadows and multiple echoes.
The document discusses basic navigation concepts including types of navigation such as coastal, celestial, and electronic navigation. It covers terrestrial coordinate systems including latitude, longitude, and datums. Charts are also discussed, specifically the Mercator projection which maintains true shape over small areas and allows accurate measurement of position, distance, and direction.
This document discusses hydrographic surveying, which involves measuring physical features underwater. It begins by introducing hydrographic surveying and its main applications like nautical charting. It then discusses the preliminary steps, which include reconnaissance of the survey area and establishing horizontal and vertical control points. Next, it describes different methods for taking soundings, such as using sounding poles, lead lines, and fathometers. It also covers equipment like range markers and techniques like sounding by boat and using angles from shore. Finally, it discusses reducing soundings to a common datum and modern instruments like airborne lidar bathymetry and GPS.

master decide whether to go
South of Madagascar or
North of Madagascar.
▪ Now make the rough passage
with a pencil on the Part 1 of
the catalogue (Green line)
▪ In this example the passage is
made South of Madagascar

8. Part 1 of the catalogue
• The pencil mark goes through the following Chart Indexes:
❑Index I,
❑Index H1,
❑Index H,
❑Index A,
❑Index A1 and
❑Index G1
• Which means, need to refer the above Chart Indexes to find the
charts required from Colombo to Durban.
• Now refer the Chart Index I of the catalogue.

includes (the coverage areas of the
below three charts are highlighted in
different colours for you to understand
better):
• 1655 (highlighted in red)
• 813 (highlighted in blue)
• 709 (highlighted in green)
Go back to the former slide and look at
the coverage area of chart 709.
Look at the overage areas of other
charts in this Index as well.
Now, Turn to Chart Index H1

• Refer the relevant
publications and consult the
master in deciding whether to
use “One & Half Degree
Channel” or “Equatorial
Channel”
• In this case, passage is made
through “Equatorial Channel”.
Therefore, need the following
chart from Index H1:
❑ 1011
• Now turn to Index H
13. Index H
Refer the next
slide for a
zoomed
picture of the
required area
Shane Sankaranarayana 13
14. Index H
Following charts
are required
from Index H:
• 717
• 759
• 760
Now turn to
Index A1
Shane Sankaranarayana 14
15. Refer the next
slide for a
zoomed
picture of the
required area
Index A1
Shane Sankaranarayana 15
16. Index A1
Following charts are
required from this
Index:
• 4703
• 4702
• 4700
Now, refer the Index A

17. Index A
Refer the next
slide for a
zoomed
picture of the
required area
Shane Sankaranarayana 17
18. Index A
Shane Sankaranarayana 18
• These are general
charts of the oceans.
• These charts are good
for planning purposes
and ocean crossings.
• This scale charts are
not required for this
passage.
• Now, turn to Index G1.
19. Index G1
Refer the next
slide for a
zoomed
picture of the
required area
Shane Sankaranarayana 19
20. Index G1
Charts required from
this Index:
• 3300
• 2088
• 643
Now, there is a doubt
about charts 4170 and
3797
Refer the names of the
charts on the opposite
page on the NP 131
Shane Sankaranarayana 20
21. Index G1
• From the opposite page:
• Definitely 4170 is required for the passage
• Now the problem is whether the chart 3797 is required or not?
Chart Number Name of the chart Scale
3797 Green Point to Tongaat Bluff 150,000
4170 Approaches to Durban 30,000
Shane Sankaranarayana 21
22. Index G1
• Look at the charts 3793, 3794, 3795
& 3797 on this page and on the
opposite page.
• All four charts are having the same
scale.
• Now, look at the charts 4173 &
4170. The coverage area is not
marked here.
• That means the chart 3797 covers
the area marked by red colour line.
• Therefore, need to order 3797 as
well.
• When there are ambiguities, look at
the scale, name of the charts on
the opposite side of this page and
also, compare with other charts on
the same page.
• Now, turn to Index AA.
Shane Sankaranarayana 22
23. Index AA
23
• We did not come across with this
Index when making the rough
passage on the Part 1 of the
catalogue.
• Index AA is not marked on the Part 1
of the catalogue.
• These are extremely small-scale
charts and not required for this
passage.
• But, do not forget about this Index
when making ocean crossings as they
may be used for planning purposes.

24. Now, let’s learn how to select
nautical publications
Shane Sankaranarayana 24
25. How to select Sailing directions
Example
• Let’s see how to find the required sailing directions for the above
passage (Colombo to Durban).
• Turn to the relevant page (which shows the limits of the sailing
directions) on the NP 131.
• Look at the zoomed picture of the relevant page of the NP 131 on the
next slide.
• It shows the number of the sailing directions with the coverage area.
Shane Sankaranarayana 25
27. • This picture is
enlarged further.
• Plot the departure
and arrival positions
with a pencil (plotted
in Red colour).
• Make the rough
passage in a pencil
(plotted in Green
colour.
• Required Sailing
directions are:
❑ NP 38
❑ NP 39 and
❑ NP 3
Shane Sankaranarayana 27
28. When in doubt
Example
• If your arrival or departure positions are very close to the limits of NP 2 and NP 3
(the Red dot on the picture).
• Then, look at the opposite page where the names and geographical areas of the
volumes are given:
• Then you can take an idea about which publication is required.
• Still if you are in doubt, consult the master.
Shane Sankaranarayana 28
NP Title Geographical area comprises
2 Africa Pilot, Volume II West coast of Africa from Presqu Ile Bakasi (Bakasi Peninsula) to
Cape Agulhas; islands in the Bight of Biafra; Ascension Island; Saint
Helena Island, Tristan da Cunha Group and Group Island
3 Africa Pilot, Volume III South and East coasts of Africa from Cape Agulhas to Ras Binnah,
including the Islands of Zanzibar and Pemba
29. Selecting other charts & publications
• Same procedure shall be followed to identify the required following
charts and publications from the NP 131:
❑Routeing charts
❑Mariner’s routeing guides (if available for the area)
❑Admiralty list of lights & fog signals
❑Admiralty list of radio signals
❑Admiralty tide tables
• Make a list of charts and publications required for the passage by
referring to the applicable pages of the NP 131.
Shane Sankaranarayana 29
30. Double check
• Again, start from the very beginning and make sure the selected
charts and publications are correct and no mistakes.
• In fact, it is better to check two / three times to make sure all are in
order until you are experienced enough.
• If in any doubt in selecting charts or publications without taking a risk,
ask the master.
• The master will be very happy to help, so that he knows a perfect job
is done.
Shane Sankaranarayana 30
31. Requisition order
• Check against the chart correction log or inventory of charts to see
whether the required charts are available onboard.
• Check against the inventory of the bridge library to see whether the
required nautical publications are available onboard.
• If not available onboard, make the requisition order in accordance with the
company’s requisition procedures as below:
