3.6 Vector Attributes
What is a vector?
A vector is a line extending from a tracked target which shows speed and course of the target. The
vector tip shows estimated position of the target after the selected vector time elapses. It can be
useful to extend the vector length (time) in order to evaluate the risk of collision with any target.

Vector time, vector reference
Vector time can be set to 30 seconds, 1, 3, 6, 15 or 30 minutes. You may reference the vectors to
North (True, requires heading and speed data) or ship's heading (relative) as desired.

key.
Relative: Other ships move relative to own ship. This mode is
useful as an anti-collision aid. If a vessel is on a collision course
with own ship its vector will be pointing toward own ship position.
True: Own ship and other ships move at their true motions. This
mode is useful for discriminating between moving and stationary
targets.
