The New Station Catalogue command is used to define the distribution and labelling of stations along a continuous sequence of alignments.
The station catalogue is an important part of shoal detection. In order to perform shoal detection, the reference model must have a station catalogue created for the model and that station catalogue must have an appropriate alignment and template assigned to it.
To create a new station catalogue, a series of alignments and templates must exist and be available (for information on creating alignments and templates see New Alignment Features and New Template Features).
