About

SAFE NAVIGATION CAN ONLY BE ASSURED IF CREW MEMBERS UNDERSTAND THE CORRECT APPLICATION OF THE VARIOUS NAVIGATIONAL CHARTS IN USE ABOARD NAVAL SHIPS. PROGRAM EXPLAINS THREE TYPES OF CHARTS -- MERCATOR, GNOMONIC, AND THE LAMBERT CONFRONTATIONAL. A VITAL STEP IN THE SAFE NAVIGATION OF ANY VESSEL IS THE PROPER USE OF CHARTS. MASTERY OF THESE TECHNIQUES IS OF CRITICAL IMPORTANCE TO EVERY SAILOR IN THE FLEET. - DOD PIN 806319
