Positional Display Modes
The relative positions of the CyScan vessel and single or multiple targets can be expressed
either as Range and Bearing values, or as 'x' and 'y' positions on a rectangular coordinate
frame.
During Single-Target Tracking the position of the tracked target can be displayed as either
Range/Bearing or Bow/Starboard. For Multi-Target Tracking the position of the tracked
targets can be displayed as Range/Bearing or A/B/Heading (see definition of A/B axes on
page 32).
Range & Bearing
Range and Bearing mode displays the distance and the bearing of the primary (or only)
target from the sensor. The radial markers around the outside of the BEV are zeroed in line
with the vessel bow and a magenta tag marks the bearing which is the angle of the target
clockwise from the bow.
In the case of multi-target tracking, there is also a heading axis. This always passes
through the primary target and it points through the secondary target. A purple tag
represents the heading, which is the angle of the vessel bow clockwise from the heading
axis.
Users can select the required mode by clicking the appropriate tab above the Data Quality
area:
