🔍 Key Concepts

• standard chart symbols for different types of positions • difference between a fix, dead reckoning (DR) position, estimated position (EP), and running fix • how each type of position is obtained (by what method)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Which type of position is considered the most certain and is usually highlighted on the chart? • Think about how you plot a DR, EP, and running fix—what shape or mark does each normally use? • Which type of position is based on crossing lines of position (LOPs)?

✅ Before You Answer

• Review the chartwork section of your navigation textbook or Bowditch for the standard symbols used. • Confirm which symbol (circle, square, triangle) is associated with each type of plotted position. • Make sure you can explain in your own words how a running fix differs from a regular fix before choosing your answer.
