Description
The ComputeSIPSTowfishNavigation process computes the position of a towfish from the ship's navigation using a horizontal distance and direction from the ship's towpoint to the towfish.
Update
One or more HIPS track lines.
Outputs
Updated HIPS track lines.
Command Line Syntax
carisbatch --run ComputeSIPSTowfishNavigation [options] <update>
User Interface Command
Options
The following table describes the parameters available for this process.
Parameter |
| |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
Long | Short key | Description | Can Repeat | Notes
|
--smooth-sensor | If set, applies smoothing coefficients to the specified data. • GYRO: Gyro - Smooths the gyro data. • SSSSensor: Side scan sensor depth - Smooths the side scan sensor depth data. • SSSCable: Side scan cable out - Smooths the side scan cable out data. | TRUE | ||
--use-cmg | If set, calculates Course Made Good from the Navigation for heading. Otherwise stored gyro is used. | FALSE | ||
--recompute-contact-positions | If set, recomputes the position of any existing contacts with the new navigation. | FALSE | ||
Example
To use this command, refer to the following example.

|---|---|---|
Objective | To compute the position of a towfish from a ship’s navigation data. | |
Description | Command Line Syntax | |
The gyro data will be smoothed. | --smooth-sensor GYRO | |
The position of existing contacts will be recomputed using new navigation data. | --recompute-contact-positions | |
The input file is named input.hips and is located at C:\temp\input\. The HIPS file URI filters for the vessel named “sample” and day 2000-001. | C:\temp\input\ | |
Command Line | carisbatch --run ComputeSIPSTowfishNavigation --smooth-sensor GYRO --recompute-contact-positions file:///C:/temp/input/input.hips?Vessel=sample;Day=2000-001 | |
Outcome | The data is updated with the computed towfish position data. | |
