Clearing Lines
Clearing lines are bearing lines or range lines
used to approximate a position where a danger
to own ship lies.
The clearing line bearing or range value is used
to navigate around the dangerous area such that
the mariner would want ownship to remain no
less than or no greater than the range or bearing
of the clearing lines.
The Clearing Lines sub menu includes the following tab folders:
•
Editor
•
Monitor
•
I/O
The Editor tab enables you to create, save, open, edit and delete one or
more sets of clearing lines.
The Monitor tab enables you to select a previously saved set of clearing
lines for monitoring against own ship's course.
The I/O tab enables you to import or export sets of clearing lines to and
from an external device such as a USB memory stick.
Editing Clearing Lines
There are two types of Clearing Line available:
•
Bearing Line
•
Range Line
Bearing lines are drawn as a single solid line with an arrowhead towards
the line's bearing. Range lines are drawn as a single arc with arrowheads
on both the start point and end point of the arc line.
The clearing line bearing or range value
is shown in the same colour beneath
the line. The clearing line may also
include a label defined by the operator.
A clearing line may be selected as a Not
More Than (NMT) or Not Less Than
(NLT) value. For example, in the figure
below the mariner would want to keep
the ship's bearing no less than 294.2º
and no more than 315.2º to stay in safe
water.
