🔍 Key Concepts

• Lines of Position (LOPs) and how they intersect on a chart • The difference between an estimated position (EP), dead reckoning (DR), running fix, and a fix • What "taken at nearly the same time" implies in traditional piloting and electronic navigation

💭 Think About

• Which of these positions uses ONLY your course and speed over time, with no recent observations? • Which one uses observations (bearings, ranges, etc.) that are taken at different times, then advanced to a common time? • If you have two or more LOPs that cross at almost the same instant, what do navigators traditionally call that point on the chart?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which definition involves two or more LOPs intersecting at about the same time. • Verify which term is used when LOPs are advanced forward in time before plotting their intersection. • Double‑check that an estimated position usually combines DR with possible error, rather than precise intersecting LOPs.
