DATA DISPLAY

A variety of navigational information, own ship status, radar plotting
data, wind, water temperature and information from other shipborne
sensors are displayed on the cells. These selected targets are
marked with a square symbol on the radar display. Magnify is
a special feature of the FURUNO radars FAR-28x7 series. This looks
like a delayed-sweep zoom that the IMO strictly prohibits, but where
the Administration accepts, the Magnify feature enlarges part of radar
display for some special maritime activity.
TARGET ASSOCIATION (Fusion)
An AIS-equipped ship may be displayed by both AIS and ARPA
symbols. This is because the AIS position is measured by a GPS
in L/L while the ARPA target blip and data are measured by range
and bearing from own ship and located on the radar PPI.
When the symbols are within an operator-set criteria, the ARPA
symbol is merged in the AIS symbol. The criteria are determined
by the differences in range, bearing, course, speed, etc.
