🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between a fix, running fix, and estimated position in coastal navigation • How lines of position (LOPs) taken at different times can be adjusted for the vessel’s motion • The role of advancing an LOP to a common time using dead reckoning

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: When you use more than one LOP that were taken at different times, what do you have to do to make them intersect correctly? • Which term specifically involves "advancing" LOPs forward along the ship’s track, and which terms do NOT require this step? • Which position type always comes from intersecting simultaneous LOPs, and which comes from LOPs at different times?

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure the option you choose involves more than one LOP and different times • Confirm that the method uses dead-reckoning motion to move or "advance" an LOP to a later time • Eliminate any term that describes a position based on single-time simultaneous observations only
