_The Routing module calculates the best course for inshore and ocean races.

It provides navigators with a useful racing and course optimisation tool.

The Routing module displays the wind, current, pressure and precipi-

tation GRIB on the charts.

GRIBs can be downloaded from most sources of weather data or

directly from Adrena via GRIB.US. Navimail 2 or PredictWind applica-

tion. The software has a direct interface for this.

The course is calculated from the parameters chosen: start, destina-

tion, calculation parameters, polars, wind, current and dangers to

avoid.

Several successive course calculations can be obtained by setting

certain parameters, then displayed tor comparison.

In addition one or more courses can be simulated and the different

- The calculation algorithm Includes the current and makes a correc-

tion for the background wind

- Adrena route planning calculates the optimum course automati-

cally avoiding the coast.

- It can calculate a route plan from an inshore course: in this case,

it Is best to set the wind force to obtain a route plan calculated on va-

riations in current.

- Adrena provides a customisable table of legs using the predicted

sailing conditions and the recommended sail configuration (Sailed®

function).

- The courses calculated show the wind conditions encountered

throughout of course (post-it and symbols).
