商品描述

This book focuses on Coastal and Ocean Navigation with an emphasis on celestial navigation techniques as a 'back up' in the event digital technologies fail.It deals with the main themes and principles of celestial navigation (including time). It covers the syllabus for deck officers working towards the Officer of the Watch (OOW) certificate of competence (COC) awarded by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA), and for Royal Navy navigation officers working towards achieving the equivalent Navigational Watch Certificate (NWC). The NWC is equivalent to the certificate awarded by the MCA to OOWs in the Merchant Service under the international Standardisation of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping (STCW) agreements. The detailed theory of celestial navigation is provided.

本書專注於沿海和海洋導航,強調在數位技術失效時,天文導航技術作為「備用」的重要性。它涵蓋了天文導航的主要主題和原則(包括時間)。本書涵蓋了船舶甲板官員取得海事及海岸警衛署(MCA)頒發的值勤官員(OOW)能力證書(COC)所需的課程,以及皇家海軍導航官員取得相等的航行值勤證書(NWC)的課程。NWC相當於MCA根據國際培訓、認證和值勤標準化(STCW)協議頒發給商船服務中的OOW的證書。本書提供了詳細的天文導航理論。
