Extract

Modern marine navigation is experiencing a more drastic change than ever before; automated systems are being introduced extensively in various parts of ships at various levels, inertial navigation systems are on the verge of introduction, the Navy Navigation Satellite system is now open for civilian use, and parallel with these developments modern data processing systems armed with electronic computers are being used at sea. In the processing of data, the application of modern statistical methods such as Kalman filtering should be noted.
