A polar with heel degrees for a range of wind speeds and wind angles. You can import a polar from jieter -ORC with a few clicks. Polars are created by saving an Excel spreadsheet as a. You can have an unlimited number of polars: Full Crew, solo, DH, Genua or HA, no-Spi, Big Waves, whatever. To calculate actual performance against the polar, it helps to have a reasonably accurate polar. A polar, with target boat speeds for a range of true wind speeds at 10 m high and a range of true wind angles. Next to these NMEA-inputs, some information about the boat is needed. If VHW records are present (with speed thru water, STW) these can be used to calculate True wind instead of using SOG for True Wind (TWA and TWS). VHW,RMB,RMC,HDG,HDT,HDM,MWV,VWR,DBT,DBK,DBS,DPT,HRM,FEC-GPatt,ROT,XDR (some kinds) and VBW. NMEA records processed as input in this version are: Records with True wind (MWV-T and the obsolete VWT) are ignored, as SailingPD itself calculates True Wind from Apparent in two different ways.Īdditional other record types make it possible to produce a lot of extra information.

SPD uses at a minimum an RMC-record (from a GPS, for SOG and COG) and one of 2 kinds of wind-records (MWV-R or VWR). Linux on Raspberry Pi with 64-bits ARM (AArch64 / arm64) Linux on Raspberry Pi with 32-bits ARM (ARMv7 / armhf) Linux on Intel/AMD 64-bit machines (amd64 / x86_64) Many, sometimes complex, calculations are done and the resulting information is available in a number of ways: home-made NMEA records for your instruments, on PC-screen, via wifi over UDP and as sound : spoken advice! Sailing Performance Dashboard (from here on: SPD) is a program that receives and processes NMEA-183 records, including converted N2K- STNG- and ST-records from a multiplexer or other multiplexing device or application.
