4. Longitude Error Table (on 96 nm range scale)
The longitude lines concentrate on the north pole and south pole, namely, 1 nm is
equivalent to 1 minute at 0 degree latitude, 2 minutes at 60 degrees latitude, 3 minutes at
70 degrees latitude and so on. For this reason, a longitude error occurs on the radar display.
For example, when own ship is at 60
°
N and 135
°
E, even if the cursor indication is 62
°
N and
139
°
E, the real cursor position is deviated to the left (west) side. The table below shows the
longitude error, represented from 0
°
to 90
°
at 96 nm from the radar center (own ship).
