Abstract
Procedures based on solutions of the direct and inverse geodetic problems are presented and their application in orthodromic and loxodromic navigation is analysed. They can be used in traditional navigation during a route planning and during sailing on the planned route in real time. The optimal division of orthodromes during planning and locally predicted short loxodromes during sailing – which allow orthodromic navigation also in manual steering – are proposed.
