Shoreline Images

This sequence illustrates a boat entering a channel. The green line is

the track the vessel will take. The magenta line from the stern is a GPS

trail. Study these radar returns with their corresponding maps and

you'll get a feel for how radar displays a shoreline. This channel is sur-

rounded by steeply sloping, rocky hills. Radar signals are strictly line-

of-sight, so this causes land further inland to show no return.
Numbered features on the radar correspond to the same position num-

ber on the map.
