The radar operator has a role of interpreting the radar displays to provide his best aid in maneuvering the ship.
For this purpose, the operator has to observe the radar displays after fully understanding the advantages and
disadvantages that the radar has. For better interpretation of radar display, it is important to gain more
experiences by operating the radar equipment in fair weathers and comparing the target ships watched with the
naked eyes and their echoes on the radar display.
The radar is mainly used to monitor the courses of own ship and other ships in open seas, to check buoys and
other nautical marks when entering a port, to measure own ship’s position in the coastal waters relative to the
bearings and ranges of the shore or islands using a chart, and to monitor the position and movement of a heavy
rain if it appears on the radar display.
Various types of radar display will be explained below.
