Displaying AIS Targets

Note: AIS and ARPA targets viewing limitations are as follows:
•
AIS and ARPA targets are displayed on top of chart 1:1,000,001 for S57 charts.
•
AIS and ARPA targets are displayed on top of chart 1:1,900,001 for ARCS charts. This allows display
of AIS and ARPA targets on top of the largest scale ocean charts (original scale 1:3,500,000) when
they are zoomed to "overscale".
See the AIS target examples below where the example at left shows targets' call sign and the right example shows
targets' name.
See the examples below where the example at left is a presentation of AIS targets with "true scale symbol" and the
one at right is a presentation with "point symbols". Note that own ship and AIS targets are displayed as true scale
symbol if the displayed chart scale is larger than set with "Ship true symbol scale" limit on the Tracking page in the
Chart Display dialog box and if the size of the true scale symbol is larger than 6 mm on the chart display.
