Resumen

The Decca Navigator, which is a navigational instrument, may also, when used under favourable conditions, supply sufficiently accurate indications for measurements at sea. The following article gives illustration of measurements of turning radius, speed and deceleration carried out during ship trials. Several original methods are proposed for measuring the speed of ships in service without appreciably interfering with schedules.
