Electronic Chart Fundamentals (ECS), Coastal Explorer
- Length1 Days
Course Description
Electronic Chart Systems can improve navigational safety, enhance situational awareness, and offer better operational efficiency. But many mariners don’t know how to take advantage of all the tools that come with the software.
This 8-hour course covers the basics of ECS navigation, as well as advanced tools available in Rose Point ECS. Using a live Rose Point environment, students plan a voyage, set up the program for navigation, access infrequently used options and train for equipment failure.
This course is appropriate for the mariner new to electronic navigation, as well as experienced Masters. Newer watch officers will leave the course able to confidently utilize Electronic Chart Systems on a daily
basis. Experienced mariners will have the opportunity to practice with the program in a way not possible underway and refresh skills in advanced Rose Point techniques.
