About Sight reduction Android Application

Sight reduction is a calculator used in celestial navigation to derive crucial information needed to establish a line of position. This app allows you to input observed or instrumental altitudes, including data from the Nautical Almanac for the Sun and the Moon. It calculates the intercept from the observer's assumed position, the geographical position of the observed celestial body, and its corrected altitude. This information can then be used to plot up to three Marcq Saint Hilaire Lines of Position on Google Maps, providing valuable navigational insights.

Application Main Features

• Marcq Saint Hilaire Line of Position, intercept method (p=Ho-Hc, Zn).
• Input for observed altitude Ho or instrumental Hs (Nautical Almanac data needed for the Sun and the Moon).
• Calculator for Intercept method (p=Ho-Hc, Zn) altitude Hc and azimuth Zn.
• Running fix.
• Plots up to 3 Marcq Saint Hilaire Lines of Position on Google maps.
• Local hour angle (LHA).
• List of navigational stars.
• Logbook (output is copied to clipboard).
• New optimized user interface.
• GNSS fix to check the solution.
