The Merging Algorithm of Radar Simulation Data in Navigational Simulator

摘要

In this paper, a method used to generate continuous and complete radar simulation data was described. This new method based on previous radar simulation data, which extracted from different scales S-57 standard electronic navigation charts in navigational simulator. In this work, the clipping buffer in per radar simulation data was set and the boundary line was cut off by forward angle firstly. Then radar simulation data were sort according to scale and area range after deducting clipping buffer from the original chart. Subsequently the redundant data were deleted based on the original scale. Finally, the direct connection was proposed to wave the radar simulation data. Taken charts about waters around Dalian Port as an example, the radar simulation data generated meet the need in navigational simulator.
