This report deals with the capabilities and services of the Navigation Section of the Ship Facility Group. This Group was established to provide the seagoing specialists and technicians for operating shipboard facilities and to perform such services which are necessary to the divisions of the Research Department to support field experiments at sea. The Navigation Section has the capability of constructing special charts which may be used to plot positions as received from various Navy navigation systems during sea experiments. At the request of scientists, the section also makes prognostic weather summaries to estimate weather and sea conditions likely to be encountered in proposed scientific experiments. Complete navigation control for a scientific project at sea is available through these navigators who have extensive seagoing navigation expertise plus wide experience in the use of electronic navigation systems. The primary function of these navigators is one of accurate and consistent 24-hr navigation control for the research scientist at sea. This navigation is documented by special navigation and weather data logs that are designed in a computer-compatible format.
