Description: After having collected all the data : estimated latitude and longitude, declination / local hour angle of the observed celestial bodies (stars, sun, moon and planets ) and sextant reading (altitude) ... we must calculate at least four data. We’ll use these to plot lines of position (LOP) on a nautical chart, plotting work sheet, or a simple graph paper to determine the position of the ship.
The data we need are : true altitude, LHA/declination, computed (estimated) altitude and azimuth
We can use this simple excel file to verify (or avoid) the manual calculations !
The file consists of four worksheet.
To prevent damages in cells containing formulae the worksheets are protected and cells are locked, we may use the unlocked cells only (green background).
