Title: AIS icon
Post by: peteradriaan on November 12, 2013, 08:22:23 PM
I am very happy with the new feature AIS. Thank you for that.

However it would be even more useful when the speed and the course of a ship is being shown by an arrow at the bow of the ship. The longer the arrow, the higher the speed. The estimation of a possible collision is easier that way.

A different colour for different kind of ships (moored/anchored, sailing yachts, cargo vessels) would also contribute to a better understanding.
