Past Position Display

The past position display shows equally time-spaced dots marking past positions of
activated AIS targets. A new dot is added at preset time intervals until the preset num-
ber is reached. If a target changes its speed, the spacing will be uneven. If it changes
course, its plotted course will not be a straight line.
Below are examples of past position displays.
