crossing Explanation: i.e. a crossing to a LOP From wikipedia "crossing lines of position or LOP" http://ordnet.dk/ods/ordbog?select=Tværmærke&query=Tvær-mærk... "Tvær-mærke, et. (, nu især fisk.) sømærke, der ses i en retning paa tværs af retningen til et andet sømærke (jf. Langmærke) ved bestemmelsen af et fartøjs ell. en fiskegrunds plads" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navigation "Most other modern techniques rely on crossing lines of position or LOP.[4] A line of position can refer to two different things: a line on a chart and a line between the observer and an object in real life." |
