10 TYPES OF
NAVIGATION
EQUIPMENT AND
RESOURCES USED
ONBOARD
MODERN SHIPS

Gone are the days when a ship navigation officer had to
take help of unconventional ways to plan and navigate a voyage
at sea. Today, a ship officer has myriad of marine navigation
equipment which makes his life a lot simpler, thanks to the
advancement in technology. Moreover, present-day seafarers
are trained so as to know the functioning and operation of all
modern day navigational equipment that has made the journey
at sea smoother and safer.
With modern day facilities and automation, a ship today
has several advanced navigation equipment systems which give
accurate data for the voyage.
1. Gyro Compass
It is used for finding the right direction. Unlike magnetic
compass, gyro compass is not hampered by an external
magnetic field. It is used to find the correct North
Position, which is also the earth’s rotational axis to
provide a stable directional source. Its repeater system
must be present in the steering platform for emergency
steering.
2. Radar
The seagoing vessels depend on S-band and X-band
frequency radar system for navigation as it can detect
targets and display the information on the screen such as
the distance of the ship from land, any floating objects (an
island, rocks, iceberg etc.), other vessels, and obstacles to
avoid a collision. It is a rotating antenna which discovers
the surrounding area of the ship.
3. Magnetic Compass
The magnetic compass work in conjunction with the
magnetic field of the earth and is the essential means
of the direction indicating device. It is used to get a
planned course for the voyage. This ship navigation
equipment is usually fitted at the center line of the ship
on the monkey island. A transmitting magnetic type
compass is fitted so that the output can be displayed in
the bridge pane
4. Auto Pilot
The ship bridge layout is filled with equipment and tools
used for navigation. The autopilot is considered to be one
of the most effective bridge navigational equipment as it
assists the human operator in controlling the ship by
keeping the steering in autopilot, which allows them to
concentrate on broad aspects of the operation.
5. ARPA
Automatic Radar Plotting Aid displays the position of a ship
and other vessels nearby. The radar displays the position of
the ships in the vicinity and selects the course for the vessel
by avoiding any kind of collision.
This bridge navigational equipment constantly monitors the
ship’s surrounding and automatically acquires the number
of targets, in this case; ships, boats, stationary or floating
objects etc., and plot their speeds and courses respectively.
It also presents them as vectors on the display screen and
constantly update the parameters with each turn of the
antenna by calculating their nearest points of approach to
own ship and also the time before this will occur.
6. Automatic Tracking Aid
Just like ARPA, automatic tracking aid displays the
information on tracked targets in graphic and numeric
to generate a planned layout for a safer and collision-free
course.
Usually, A large size target measuring 800 m or more in
the circumference is considered as a landmass and not
tracked. Echoes less than 800 m are deemed as targets
to be tracked.
7. Voyage Data Recorder
A VDR or voyage data recorder is a crucial instrument
among the ship navigation equipment list which is installed
on a ship to continuously record vital information related to
the operation of a vessel. It contains a voice recording
system for a period of at least the last 12 hours. This
recording is recovered and made use of for investigation in
events of accidents. The importance of VDR is similar to a
“black box” installed on an airplane.
8. GPS Receiver
A Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver is a display
system used to show the ship’s location with the help of
Global positioning satellite in the earth’s orbit.
With the record of the ship’s positions, the speed, course,
and the time is taken to cover the distance between “two
marked positions” can be calculated.
9. Sound Reception System
This acoustic system is required for a ship with a fully
enclosed type bridge. It enables the navigating officer
inside the cabin to listen to the sound signals (such as fog
or ship’s horn) from other ships in the vicinity. This is fitted
in ships bridge equipment console and helps the navigating
officer to conduct the look-out duty as per the International
Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea.
10. Navigational Lights
All boats – whether big or small are required to have night
lights as a part of the navigation systems. This system was
introduced in the year 1838 by the United States and then
was followed by the United Kingdom in 1849. In the year
1889, the International Maritime Conference was established
by the United States to establish proper guidelines to prevent
marine accidents. In the year 1897, these rules were officially
adopted internationally. The navigation lights are one of the
most critical navigation equipment needed for sailing in high
seas as it enables self vessel being clearly visible to other
ships in the vicinity.

Topic 1.2- Electronic Equipment used on ships (Navigational Equipment).pptx

  • 1. 10 TYPES OF NAVIGATION EQUIPMENT AND RESOURCES USED ONBOARD MODERN SHIPS B Y: E N G R . M A R T N I K K I L O U M . M A N T I L L A , R E E , R M E
  • 2. Gone are the days when a ship navigation officer had to take help of unconventional ways to plan and navigate a voyage at sea. Today, a ship officer has myriad of marine navigation equipment which makes his life a lot simpler, thanks to the advancement in technology. Moreover, present-day seafarers are trained so as to know the functioning and operation of all modern day navigational equipment that has made the journey at sea smoother and safer. With modern day facilities and automation, a ship today has several advanced navigation equipment systems which give accurate data for the voyage.
  • 4. It is used for finding the right direction. Unlike magnetic compass, gyro compass is not hampered by an external magnetic field. It is used to find the correct North Position, which is also the earth’s rotational axis to provide a stable directional source. Its repeater system must be present in the steering platform for emergency steering.
  • 6. The seagoing vessels depend on S-band and X-band frequency radar system for navigation as it can detect targets and display the information on the screen such as the distance of the ship from land, any floating objects (an island, rocks, iceberg etc.), other vessels, and obstacles to avoid a collision. It is a rotating antenna which discovers the surrounding area of the ship.
  • 8. The magnetic compass work in conjunction with the magnetic field of the earth and is the essential means of the direction indicating device. It is used to get a planned course for the voyage. This ship navigation equipment is usually fitted at the center line of the ship on the monkey island. A transmitting magnetic type compass is fitted so that the output can be displayed in the bridge pane
  • 10. The ship bridge layout is filled with equipment and tools used for navigation. The autopilot is considered to be one of the most effective bridge navigational equipment as it assists the human operator in controlling the ship by keeping the steering in autopilot, which allows them to concentrate on broad aspects of the operation.
  • 12. Automatic Radar Plotting Aid displays the position of a ship and other vessels nearby. The radar displays the position of the ships in the vicinity and selects the course for the vessel by avoiding any kind of collision. This bridge navigational equipment constantly monitors the ship’s surrounding and automatically acquires the number of targets, in this case; ships, boats, stationary or floating objects etc., and plot their speeds and courses respectively. It also presents them as vectors on the display screen and constantly update the parameters with each turn of the antenna by calculating their nearest points of approach to own ship and also the time before this will occur.
  • 14. Just like ARPA, automatic tracking aid displays the information on tracked targets in graphic and numeric to generate a planned layout for a safer and collision-free course. Usually, A large size target measuring 800 m or more in the circumference is considered as a landmass and not tracked. Echoes less than 800 m are deemed as targets to be tracked.
  • 15. 7. Voyage Data Recorder
  • 16. A VDR or voyage data recorder is a crucial instrument among the ship navigation equipment list which is installed on a ship to continuously record vital information related to the operation of a vessel. It contains a voice recording system for a period of at least the last 12 hours. This recording is recovered and made use of for investigation in events of accidents. The importance of VDR is similar to a “black box” installed on an airplane.
  • 18. A Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver is a display system used to show the ship’s location with the help of Global positioning satellite in the earth’s orbit. With the record of the ship’s positions, the speed, course, and the time is taken to cover the distance between “two marked positions” can be calculated.
  • 20. This acoustic system is required for a ship with a fully enclosed type bridge. It enables the navigating officer inside the cabin to listen to the sound signals (such as fog or ship’s horn) from other ships in the vicinity. This is fitted in ships bridge equipment console and helps the navigating officer to conduct the look-out duty as per the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea.
  • 22. All boats – whether big or small are required to have night lights as a part of the navigation systems. This system was introduced in the year 1838 by the United States and then was followed by the United Kingdom in 1849. In the year 1889, the International Maritime Conference was established by the United States to establish proper guidelines to prevent marine accidents. In the year 1897, these rules were officially adopted internationally. The navigation lights are one of the most critical navigation equipment needed for sailing in high seas as it enables self vessel being clearly visible to other ships in the vicinity.
