SOME SPECIFIC FEATURES OF USING THE RADAR SYSTEM IN RIVER NAVIGATION

NEKOTORYYE OSOBENNOSTI PRIMENENIYA RIS V RECHNOM SUDOVOZHDENII

Discusses the use of the Radar System maps which help in translating the fixed circles of actual distances on the maps of the river from the image on the radar screen. Two diagrams are presented to exemplify river navigation by radar with and without the fixed circles of actual distances. The use of these aids when the latter one is made for a recommended course, would permit two-way navigation on the Tobol'sk-Khanty-Mansiysk-Salekhard run with the exception of a few hazardous sectors of the course.
