Dkart Navigator has different versions for different purposes and requirements. The version 5.32 4 is suitable for global sailing and complies with the IEC 62376 standard for electronic chart systems (ECS) classes A and B. This means that it can be used as a primary or backup navigation system on board vessels that operate in international waters. It also has extended functionality for 3D sea floor modeling, depth imaging, and maneuvering predictions.
Features of Dkart Navigator 5.32 4
Some of the main features of Dkart Navigator 5.32 4 are:
Radar image overlay: Dkart Navigator can display radar images on top of electronic charts, using a dedicated external board (radar processor RP) supplied with the program. This allows the user to see the radar targets and their movements in relation to the chart objects and the own ship position. The program also supports automatic and manual ARPA target acquisition, cross-identification of AIS and ARPA targets, and radar control functions on the screen.
Ship motion modeling: Dkart Navigator can simulate the ship motion based on the hull response parameters, engine performance modes, gyration, inertia, and other factors. The program can display the maneuver line, exact locations of turning points, circulation path, momentum, and trajectory of the future maneuver with a target point. This helps the user to plan and execute safe and efficient maneuvers.
3D sea floor modeling: Dkart Navigator can create a real-time 3D model of the sea floor, based on the bathymetric data on the chart and from the echosounder. The program can display the chart over the 3D model, or use color filling (2D) to show the depth areas. The program can also show the vessel presentation on the 3D model, and calculate and display the seabed profile between any two points.
Depth data input: Dkart Navigator can continuously input and accumulate depths from the echosounder in a database referenced to a datum. The user can also manually input depths onto the chart. The program can purge the depth database within a predefined area. The user's depths can be displayed on the chart and the 3D model.
Raster display: Dkart Navigator can display rasters formatted as dKart Raster using dKart Image, GeoTIFF, or Geojpg. The program can overlay raster images on the 3-dimensional vector chart, or display raster charts in a stereographic projection.
