Route Check
The Route Check function is used after you have created a Route to ensure you and your
vessel will not have problems while navigating. This is done by the CPF180i and CPF300i
by reviewing the Route and looking for the following hazards that may effect safe navigation.
· Land Areas
· Shallow Water
· Intertidal Areas (areas emerged at low tide)
· Rocks
· Wrecks
· Obstructions
· Shoreline Constructions
· Fishing Facility
· Dredged Areas
· Diffusers (submarine pipeline)
· Mooring/Warping Facility
· Production Installation (an installation for the exploitation of natural resources)
· Pingos (small conical hills having a large central core of ice formed from the
encroachment of permafrost and the resulting hydrostatic pressure)
· No Data Available (no adequate data coverage)
If any of these alarm conditions is detected, the function returns the list of dangerous objects
and the relative dangerous Route leg, that is drawn with a different color.
· Route legs which were classified as dangerous are displayed in RED. It means that
there is at least one dangerous object in the vicinity of this leg and it has been found.
· Route legs which were classified as safe are displayed in GREEN. It means that the
data was checked on detailed map levels and no problems were found for all segments
of the leg.
· Route legs for which there was not sufficient data to be checked are displayed in
YELLOW. It means that no problems were found but the data was not sufficient or not
available at all to classify such a leg as safe.
