A conference with the above title was held recently by the Royal Institute of Navigation. It had as its secondary heading ‘Electronics in Navigation’ and this is really the key to the subject since without this there would be no CRT's or colour multi-function or any other kind of generated displays. The conference covered a wide range of land, sea and airborne systems and details of those of particular interest to ‘Aircraft Engineering’ are included here. There must of course, be information providers and databases for these systems to function at all and early papers made particular references to various FLIP's (flight information publications) and met office services and the provision of digital geographic data. The Directorate of Military Survey has plans to develop and maintain a central geographic data base from which a range of products will be available; specifically for defence purposes to support mission planning, navigation, targetting and simulation, etc. In the civil field too, the present applications of electronic data services will be expanded and chart presentations of this type will become normal throughout the industry.
