3. ICE NAVIGATION For vessels operating in low temperature environments, purchasing the Ice Navigation unlock key helps reduce any potential risk of serious incidents in Arctic waters. This special application supports both strategic route planning and tactical ice avoidance. The reflectivity properties of different objects (or surfaces) will be displayed on screen as different colours. Sea water, grease ice, first-year ice and in general low radar reflectivity areas are represented with a shade of colour from black through to green, while land, old hard ice, vessels etc.
