3.BASIC OPERATION
NOTE:
•If the single axis water log display can present the speed of
the ship in other than the forward direction, the direction of
movement should be indicated unambiguously. Therefore
single axis water logs cannot detect the effect of leeway.
•If ships in shallow water, when the accuracy of the dual-axis
log may be decreased. If ships in deep sea area, when the
accuracy of the dual-axis log error may be occurred.
•The accuracy of GPS's COG is ± 3° when own ships speed
no fewer than 1kn, no more than 17kn. The accuracy of
GPS's COG is ± 1° when own ships speed over 17kn.
