NavTools

This is my efforts to create python based tools to assist in shipboard navigational planning. Currently making use of Python, GEOJSON and turfpy.

Achieved

Extracting waypoints and turn data from an ECPINS .rte file
Calculating distance to new course for a given turn when provided with advance and transfer in yards, along with degrees of turn.
Calculating GEOJSON lat/long points for wheel over point and countdown every 1c from 1nm before turn
Calculating bearing to a fixed reference point at each count down point \

To Do

Full test of countdown bearing function
Calculate length of leg between two waypoints, from steady on course to wheel over point
Investigate how to make ECPINS .rfp reference point sets readable
In lieu of reading ECPINS .rfp reference point sets, create alternative GEOJSON reference point sets
Calculate head/sternmark 1 degree XTD along leg
Extract tidal data from ECPINS .rte file \

Contact

Please do reach out if you have any interest in this, especially if you have Python, ECPINS or general sea navigation experience. Best way is probably to raise an issue.
