2.Click [Geodetic]. Set up central coordinate system. According to seven
parameters, four parameters, elevation fitting parameters, points
transformation parameters and transformation parameters. (Description:
The [UtilityTools] module of the software can provide coordinate
parameter calculation. The results calculated by the functional
parameters can be applied in [Geodetic]; [Geodetic] module supports
parameter files importing functions can import parameter files of *.dam
format and support item parameters of importing V60 controller. If the
user do not perform any modification to current coordinate parameters,
the step can be omitted.)
3.Click [Equipment] to connect any types of GPS, Echo sounders,
compass, attitude indicator and swell instrument. (Description: This
software supports most types of GPS, Echo sounders, compass, attitude
indicators and other equipment. Sounder data format can self-define. For
the few and unknown instrument, it can be connected to the software
based on international NMEA0183 standard format).
4.Click [BoatShape] and select hull lines model. Set length, width,
position transducer, GPS antenna and other parameters. (Description: In
this step, only the deviation parameter of GPS antenna position and
transducer position will affect measuring results. The parameters need
accurate measurement and then input to the software. The other
parameters can be input roughly.)
5.Click [PlanLines]. Draw plan line with a mouse, coordinates and
coordinates library. The DXF format plan files can be imported/exported.
(Description: This software provides parallel layout, vertical layout,
regional layout, fan layout, channel layout and other layout model to
facilitate rapid layout).
6.Click [Charts]. Encrypted S63 electronic chart can be imported.
Unencrypted S57 electronic chart can be imported. (Description: If the
electronic chart is unnecessary, this step can be ignored).
7.Click [BaseMap] to import engineering basemap in DXF format.
Sounding data basemap in DAT format or user-defined format can be
imported. (Description: If the engineering basemap is unnecessary, this
