Short distance sailing is a term which is applied to sailing along a rhumb-line for distances less than 600 nautical miles. From the formulas derived above, the following are used extensively in short distance sailing:
The formulas for determining a ship’s dead-reckoned position, given an initial known location, the vessel’s course and speed, and the time elapsed, are referred to as the sailing formulas....
The gist of this essay is a novel concept showing an intrinsic property i.e. orthodrome-loxodrome correlation using a well-known formula. Keywords: marine navigation, middle latitude, middle longitude, orthodrome, loxodrome. INTRODUCTION. The loxodrome is a transcendental curve spiralling between the North Pole and the South Pole.
Using two different examples, this video shows how to calculate the course and distance between two positions; and how to calculate the position arrived if d...
ABSTRACT Although the mathematical basis for rhumb lines on the ellipsoidal earth is well known, the earth's oblateness is usually neglected in dead-reckoning sailing calculations. This leads to si...
An initial great circle, which at its vertex meets some limiting parallel of latitude, is followed by a rhumb line along the parallel to the vertex of a final great circle which takes the ship to its destination.
This paper provides simple formulas that include the earth's oblateness, which can be readily applied to sailing calculations. The accuracy of these formulas is assessed, and they are shown to be good to about 10 m over ranges up to 1000 km.
