This section of the ChartCo OneOcean user guide shows you how to get started using OneOcean after you've installed
it.
The first set of topics show how to set up and configure OneOcean for the first time.
If you're new to using OneOcean, topic 2.7 ChartCo OneOcean basics describes the most common features and
gives a brief description of each module.
Topic 2.8 Getting help explains where you can get further help and information about OneOcean.
• Use the Windows Start menu to find and open OneOcean. You'll find OneOcean in a ChartCo folder in the
programs list.
To learn about using OneOcean for the first time, see 2.7 OneOcean basics.
To learn about the OneOcean home page, see 3.0 The home page.
2. In the Identification panel, complete any empty boxes. If you're upgrading from PassageManager, OneOcean
automatically completes some of the information for you.
3. In the Data Settings panel, use the Data Collection Method drop-down menu to select how OneOcean contacts
the ChartCo server to request data updates. If you select E-mail, further options appear for configuring email
collection. To learn more, see 2.3 Configuring data collection.
4. If you set the Data Collection Method to Internet, make sure the Firewall Type drop-down menu is set to an
option that matches the firewall type used on the computer or computer network. Contact your IT department if
you need more information about this.
5. If OneOcean has completed the information for you, below the Data Settings panel, it displays a checkbox
labelled Confirm all details are correct. Make sure all the information is correct, and then select the checkbox.
6. Click Setup.
7. If any of the credentials don't match the ones recorded on the ChartCo server, OneOcean displays the message
shown in the picture below.
When the setup process is complete, the OneOcean home page opens.
To change the credentials you entered, click Settings > Vessel, and then change the Identification panel settings.
To change the way OneOcean contacts the ChartCo server to request data updates, in the Data Updates module, click
Communication Settings.
When OneOcean checks for updates, it sends information to the ChartCo server about your outfit. The ChartCo server
then sends the required data as a series of data updates.
OneOcean can be configured for data collection using the internet or data collection using e-mail.
To learn how to configure this option, see 2.3.1 Configuring for internet.
To learn how to check for updates using this option, see 5.1.1 Updating from internet.
1. Manual Attachments
The ChartCo server sends updates to OneOcean by sending emails with data update files attached. You must manually
import these to OneOcean.
This method requires the least configuration to set up. But it requires the most work from you to operate. We only
recommend it if there's no internet connection available on the computer running OneOcean, or if you're unable to
configure any of the other methods described below.
To learn how to configure this option, see 2.3.2 Configuring for manual attachments.
To learn how to check for updates using this option, see 5.1.2 Updating from manual attachments.
2. Mail Server
Data request files and data update files are sent between OneOcean and the ChartCo server by directly accessing an
email server.
To configure this method, you need to know the IP addresses, port numbers, protocols and login details of an email
service.
To learn how to configure this option, see 2.3.3 Configuring for mail server.
To learn how to check for updates using this option, see 5.1.3 Updating from mail server.
3. EML File
As with the Manual Attachments method, the ChartCo email server sends updates to OneOcean by sending emails
with data update files attached. You must manually import these to OneOcean.
When OneOcean checks for updates, it may create an EML file containing a data request file. When you open the EML
file, this creates an email to the ChartCo server with the data request file already attached.
This method can be used with the following email applications: Novell, GroupWise, Microsoft Outlook Express, Lotus
Notes, Windows Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird, and Postbox.
To learn how to configure this option, see 2.3.4 Configuring for EML files.
To learn how to check for updates using this option, see 5.1.4 Updating from EML files.
4. Microsoft Outlook
The ChartCo email server sends updates to OneOcean by sending emails with data update files attached. OneOcean
detects these when they arrive in your Outlook inbox and automatically imports the updates.
When OneOcean checks for updates, it may create an email containing a data request file in your Outlook outbox,
which is sent automatically to the ChartCo server.
This method can only be used when Microsoft Outlook is installed and configured on the computer running
OneOcean.
To learn how to configure this option, see 2.3.5 Configuring for Outlook.
To learn how to check for updates using this option, see 5.1.5 Updating from Outlook.

Route Optimisation
Duration: 3 min 24 sec
This video shows you how to optimise your planned routes for bad weather
and to mimise voyage time, costs or emissions.
A routing profile uses vessel parameters such as beam length and draft, together with a library of vessel models to
determine the speed reduction due to wind and waves. It also defines the fuel consumption of your vessel over a
range of speeds.
You can create multiple profiles that describe different situations, such as when the vessel is laden and when it's
carrying ballast.
the selected profile in the Profile Details panel. Alternatively, click the Add icon to create a new profile.
5. In the Vessel Type drop-down menu, select the option that best describes your vessel. This determines the vessel
model that's used to calculate speed reduction due to wind and waves.
6. By default, OneOcean populates the LBP (Length Between Perpendiculars) and Beam settings using values from
the Vessel tab. It populates the Draft setting with the maximum value of Forward Draft, Mid Draft and Aft Draft.
These values are all used when calculating speed reduction due to wind and waves. If necessary, you can edit
these values. But this won't change the corresponding values in the Vessel tab.
consumption at different speeds. You can click the Add icon to add new rows to the table.
8. Below the graph, in the Other Fuel Consumption (MT/day) enter the daily amount of fuel used elsewhere on the
vessel.
To close the Settings pane, click the arrow icon at the top left of the pane.
A weather limits profile defines safety limits for parameters such as wind speed, wave height and minimum distance
from storm systems.
For each limit, you can select a warn or avoid option. When OneOcean optimises a route, it automatically adjusts the
route so that it doesn't exceed any of the weather limits that have the avoid option selected. OneOcean shows a
warning icon on a calculated route if it exceeds any weather limits that have the warn option selected.
To learn more about specifying weather limits, see 20.6 Setting weather limits.

Loading a passage
Once you've saved a passage, you can load it as your active passage or alternate passage. Loaded passages are
displayed on the OneOcean map in all modules that feature the map. Loading a passage also allows you to use the
Filter by Route feature available in many OneOcean modules.
After you've loaded an active passage or an alternate passage, you can use the Filter by Route feature that's available
in many OneOcean modules to view products and notices that relate to positions near either passage.
To load a passage:
1. In the Routes & Passages module, in the Passages panel, find the passage you want to load.
2. To load the passage as the active passage, click the red passage icon.
3. To lead the passage as the alternate passage, click the orange passage icon.
OneOcean loads the route. At the top left of the window, in the Passage Status panel, the name of the loaded
passage appears in the appropriate box.
You can use the Passage Planner module to generate a comprehensive passage plan for any of the
passages you've saved in the Routes & Passages module.
You can customise your passage plan, choosing what elements to include and in what order.
Depending on the services you're subscribed to, the passage plan can include:
You can then generate the passage plan in the form of a PDF document.
Before starting
Before using the Passage Planner module, in the Routes & Passage module, you should:
From the Routes & Passages module main screen, in the Passages panel, click the Passage Plan icon for the
passage you want to use.
3. From the list that opens, select the saved passage you want to use, then click the Next icon.
The pages of the passage planner are divided into two types: Data and Layout pages.
In the navigation panel, OneOcean lists the available pages of the selected type.
Data pages
Use the data pages to select or enter the information that appears on the passage plan. Some information is
automatically populated by OneOcean.
In the navigation panel, each data page has a vertical status bar that's coloured according to the following rules:
To change the order of the data pages, in the navigation panel, click the up and down arrows.

To hide all disabled pages from the navigation panel, at the bottom of the navigation panel, click Hide.
Note:
Disabling or hiding data pages or changing their order in the navigation panel has no effect on the final
passage plan PDF.
Layout pages
Use the layout pages to change the appearance of the passage plan. Layout pages allow you to select what
information is included on the final passage plan PDF, and in what order. You can also enter parameters for graphs
and tables.
To change the order of the layout pages, in the navigation panel, click the up and down arrows.
The order you select determines the order of the sections in the final passage plan PDF.
To disable a layout page, in the navigation panel, clear the checkbox on the right of the page name.
Disabling a layout page removes the relevant section from the final passage plan PDF.
To hide all disabled pages from the navigation page, at the bottom of the navigation panel, click Hide.
Note:
When you disable, hide or change the order of data and layout pages, the changes you make are kept for the
next passage plan you make.
Saving a plan
If you haven't saved your plan, when you generate the passage plan as a PDF, OneOcean automatically prompts you to
save the settings you've chosen as a .passage file. However, we recommend you save the plan regularly as you work
on it, to avoid the risk of losing your changes.
1. Click Save.
2. Select a location to save the plan. The default location is C:\ChartCo\data\PassagePlans.
3. Enter or select a file name. Then click Save.
OneOcean saves the plan as a .passage file. You can reopen this at any time from the Passage Planner start page.
Restarting a plan
If you've made changes to settings that you don't want to keep, you can restart the plan from the beginning or reopen
the plan from the last time you saved it.
1. Click Restart.
You can now start a plan from the beginning or reopen a plan from when you last saved it.
If you change the logo again, you can change back to the default logo using the Revert icon above the
current logo.
If you're creating a new plan, all the information on this page is populated automatically from OneOcean settings.
If required, you can edit any of the information on the page. But if you want to change a value permanently, we
recommend you also change it in Settings > Vessel.
7.4 Waypoints
In the Passage Planner module, click Data > Waypoints to review and edit the information that appears on the
passage plan waypoints table.
OneOcean can use minimum depth information, vessel details and squat calculations to check that the under-keel
clearance remains within selected safety margins. If you have valid ENC permits for your route, OneOcean calculates
the minimum depth using ENC data. Otherwise, you can manually enter the minimum depth for each leg.
• If the minimum under-keel clearance calculated for the specified speed is less than the minimum safe value, the
row is coloured red.
• If the minimum under-keel clearance calculated for the specified speed is greater than the minimum safe value,
but is less than the safe value when calculated for top speed, the row is coloured orange.
• If the minimum under-keel clearance calculated for top speed is greater than the minimum safe value, the row is
coloured green.

2. Edit values in the panels to update the corresponding value in the selected leg of the table. Values that aren't
displayed in a box with a border around them are calculated by OneOcean and can't be edited directly.
The panels and the values they contain are listed below:
Fix
Pos. fix interval The maximum time interval between position fixes in minutes.
Fix Methods The methods used to fix the vessel position. By default, Radar and GPS are selected.
Manning / Security
ER Manned Select this option if the engine room is manned during the leg.
Bridge Watch Use the drop-down menu to select the correct bridge watch level for the selected leg.
Level
Security Level The security level for the leg. By default, the lowest security level, Level 1, is selected.
Safety Depth ECDIS highlights depths soundings that are shallower than the safety depth. The safety depth for
each leg should be reviewed and edited if necessary. The default value is 30 metres.
Minimum Depth
Chart Depths If ENC data is available, OneOcean uses this value to select the Minimum Depth for the selected
leg.
OneOcean may calculate the minimum depth from several different sources. It lists each result in
this drop-down menu. If the leg passes through more than one ENC, OneOcean lists the minimum
depth found for each ENC. If available, for each ENC, it lists the shallowest sounding that lies within
the starboard and port limits for the route. For each ENC, it also lists the minimum depth for S-57
objects that lie within the starboard and port limits. This includes berth, submerged cables and
pipelines, dredged area, depth contours and depth areas.
By default, OneOcean selects the smallest of the depths after allowing for the CATZOC (Category
Zone of Confidence) value of the source ENC. You can use the drop-down menu to change the
selection.
Minimum Depth The minimum depth that's used to calculate the Effective Minimum Depth. By default, this value is
set to the depth selected in the Chart Depths drop-down menu. Alternatively, you can manually
enter or edit the value.
If you change the value, you can return it to the value selected in the Chart Depths drop-down
CATZOC By default, this setting shows the CATZOC (Category Zone of Confidence) value for the ENC
currently selected in the Chart Depths drop-down menu. OneOcean uses this value when
calculating the Effective Minimum Depth. If necessary, you can use the drop-down menu to
manually change the CATZOC value.
If you've entered the Minimum Depth manually and don't want OneOcean to adjust the Effective
Minimum Depth to allow for CATZOC, set the CATZOC drop-down menu to Unset.
Effective This is the minimum depth for the leg used for calculating the under-keel clearance. OneOcean
Minimum Depth allows for the CATZOC value by subtracting an amount from the minimum depth. The amount
subtracted increases with increasing uncertainty of the data.
Allowances
Tidal Use this field to enter any tidal allowances to factor when OneOcean calculates the under-keel
clearance.
Fresh Water Use this field to enter any fresh water allowances to factor when OneOcean calculates the under-
keel clearance.
Weather Use this field to enter any allowances for weather to factor when OneOcean calculates the under-
keel clearance.
Combined OneOcean calculates this value by subtracting the Fresh Water and Weather allowances from the
Allowance Tidal allowance.
Vessel
Maximum Draft This is the maximum of the vessel's forward, mid and aft drafts. OneOcean calculates the default
value using the values specified in Settings > Vessel. If necessary, you can edit this value for each
Air Draft By default, this is set to the Air Draft value specified in Settings > Vessel. If necessary, you can edit
this value for each leg.
Vessel Speed By default, this is set to the values set for the leg in the saved passage. If necessary, you can edit
this value for each leg.
Open Water Select this option to specify if the vessel is in open water throughout the leg. If depth information
for the leg is unavailable. When calculating the effective draft, OneOcean uses a simplified squat
calculation that depends on this option.
Vessel Squat OneOcean calculates the vessel squat based on the Vessel Speed, Maximum Draft, Effective
Depth, and, from Settings > Vessel, the Block Coefficient and Beam.
Effective Draft OneOcean calculates the effective draft by summing the Vessel Squat and the Maximum Draft.
OneOcean also displays this setting in the UKC panel.
UKC
Effective This is the same value that's displayed in the Minimum Depth panel.
Minimum Depth
Combined This is the same value that's displayed in the Allowances panel.
Allowances
Effective Draft This is the same value that's displayed in the Effective Draft panel.
Calculated UKC This is the minimum under-keel clearance that OneOcean calculates for the leg by subtracting the
Effective Draft from the sum of the Effective Depth and the Combined Allowances.
If this value is less than the Required UKC, OneOcean colours the relevant row of the waypoint
table red.
If the value is greater than the Required UKC but would become less that the Required UKC when
calculated for top speed, OneOcean colours the relevant row orange.
If the value remains greater than the Required UKC for all speeds, OneOcean colours the relevant
row green.
Required UKC The value on the right of this field is the minimum safe under-keel clearance for the selected leg. In
the drop-down menu, there are three options: Manoeuvring, Coastal or Deep Sea. The values used
for each option are specified in Settings > Vessel > Under Keel Clearance.

Watch a tutorial
EnviroManager
Duration: 3 min 58 sec
This video shows you how to view environmental zones, areas and regulations.
The EnviroManager module uses a database of national MARPOL and BWM regulations as well as many national and
regional environmental regulations. The database is updated regularly and is updated automatically in OneOcean
whenever OneOcean checks for updates.
To learn more about the regulations included in EnviroManager, see 19.4 EnviroManager database contents.
OneOcean displays the current vessel position and heading on the map. At higher magnifications, you can also see the
vessel speed and course and an approximation of vessel dimensions. To learn more, see 4.4 Viewing current vessel
position.
At the top left of the window, OneOcean displays the latitude and longitude of the current vessel location.
To centre the map on the current vessel position, click the Centre on Vessel icon.
Selecting a location
To view regulations for a specific location, click the Location tab.
Click any point on the map to view the regulations for that location. On the map, OneOcean marks the currently
selected location with a pin icon.
Use the Speed and Depth sliders or the values in the boxes to specify the speed and the depth at the selected
location.
To centre the map on the current location, in the Location tab, click the Centre Pin icon.
Environmental zones
The EnviroManager database contains information about discharge regulations within national and regional exclusive
economic zones (EEZ). The regulations become more restrictive as a vessel approaches the baseline, which usually
coincides with the shoreline. This creates banded zones around land masses defined by five specific distances from the
baseline: 3, 12, 25, 50 and 200 nautical miles. OneOcean displays the environmental zones on the map as blue shaded
areas. The closer the zones are to the baseline, the darker the blue shading.
Environmental areas
Environmental areas are geographical regions where specific environmental regulations are in force. OneOcean
indicates environmental areas on the map by drawing a coloured border around their perimeters.
In the Vessel tab, at the top left of the window, OneOcean displays information about any environmental areas the
vessel is currently within.
The displayed information includes the country or regional authority for the area and a code for the area type. If the
position is within multiple areas, OneOcean lists the code for each area type.
• see which types of zone and areas your vessel or the selected location is currently within
• see when your vessel is close to leaving or arriving in a zone or area
• hide types of zone or area from the map.
On the left of the toolbar, there are blue icons for each level of environmental zone. On the right of the toolbar, there
are coloured icons for each type of environmental area.
When the Location tab is selected, if a toolbar icon shows a large circle, this means the location you've selected on the
map is within this type of zone or area.
If a toolbar icon shows a small circle with no ring around it, this means that on your current course, your vessel is not
due to enter the zone or area for more than 30 nautical miles. If your vessel is due to enter the zone or area within the
next 30 nautical miles, OneOcean starts adding segment to the ring to indicate how close you are to the boundary.
Each unfilled segment represents 3 nautical miles from the boundary.
If a toolbar icon shows a large circle with a complete ring around it, this means that on your current course, your
vessel is not due to leave the zone or area for more than 30 nautical miles. If your vessel is due to leave the zone or
area within the next 30 nautical miles, OneOcean starts removing segments of the ring to indicate how close you are
to boundary. Each filled segment represents 3 nautical miles from the boundary.
For more information about the distances from boundaries and the estimated time until you cross boundaries, click
the icon menu options.
As in the EnviroManager module, you can use the toolbar to show or hide types of zones and area.
• Warning
If a regulation is highly prohibitive, the regulation has a red background and is marked with a cross.
• Alert
If a regulation gives restrictions on permitted discharges, the regulation details have an orange background and
are marked with an exclamation mark.
• Permission
If a regulation gives details of permitted discharges, or standard minimum restrictions, the regulation details have
a green background and are marked with a tick.
To close the Regulatory Details pane, click the arrow icon at the top left of the pane.
When a tile is collapsed, it displays red, orange and green bars that indicates the number of regulations ranked as
warnings, alerts and permissions.
Baseline coordinates
All distances from land are calculated from country-specific baseline coordinates, which are in accordance with
specifications in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, 1982 (UNCLOS).
Each country submits their baseline coordinates to the United Nations where they're made available to the public and
included in the EnviroManager database. If a country hasn't yet submitted official baseline coordinates, the baseline is
calculated using the definitions in UNCLOS and applicable charts or by using information received directly from official
channels.
International regulations
MARPOL 73/78
The main international convention regulating pollution from ships is MARPOL 73/78. This is the core of the
EnviroManager database. The technical regulations of the convention are set in six annexes of the convention.
Regulations are selected from these annexes that are applicable to operational discharges and emissions from vessels
in different areas and maritime zones.
Included guidelines:
• Resolution MEPC.219(63), 2012 Guidelines for the implementation of Annex V of MARPOL
• MEPC.220(63), 2012 Guidelines for the Development of Garbage Management Plans
BWM convention
The International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments (BWM

Area
When you select an Area checkbox, OneOcean applies shading of the same colour to areas of data that have a
common range of values.
Depending on the type of data, the shading for the areas becomes darker or changes colour for larger value ranges.
By default, on the edge of each shaded area, OneOcean displays a label showing the minimum value in the range.
Line
By default, a label showing the data value is displayed on each contour line.
Grid
When you select a Grid checkbox, OneOcean displays the element data at regular intervals on the map.
By default, vector quantities such as wind speeds are displayed as symbols that indicate both direction and
magnitude.
Below is a list of all the weather elements included in the OneOcean Weather module:
Fronts When selected, OneOcean displays cold and warm fronts on the map. This element can't
be displayed as areas or lines.
500 hPa The altitude (in metres) at which atmospheric pressure is 500 hectopascals.
Wind at 10 m Mean speed (in knots) and direction of wind at 10 metres above sea level.
Wind gusts at 10 m Speed of gusts at 10 metres above sea level (in knots).
Wind at 50 m Mean speed (in knots) and direction of wind at 50 metres above sea level.
Wind gusts at 50 m Speed of gusts at 50 metres above sea level measure (in knots).
Max wind This is the maximum speed (in knots) of the wind at 10 metres above sea level. This is
calculated to give a 90% chance that the wind speed won't exceed this value.
Wind sea height Mean height (in metres) and direction of wind-generated waves.
Swell height Mean height (in metres) and direction of surface gravity waves.
Wave height Mean wave height (in metres). This is calculated by combining the wind sea height and the
swell height.
Max wave height The maximum wave height (in metres). This is calculated to give a 90% chance that the
wave height won't exceed this value.
Visibility Visibility range given in nautical miles. (Good = 5+ nm; Moderate to good = 3-5nm;
Moderate = 1-3nm; Moderate to Poor = 0.5-1nm; Poor = <0.5nm)

Icing risk Risk of ice formation on water surface (none; light; moderate; severe; very severe).
Freezing height The altitude (in metres) at which the temperature is 0°C.
Storms Storm systems aren't listed in the list of map elements available in the Display Settings
tab. This is because OneOcean always displays hurricanes, typhoons, tropical storms and
tropical depressions on the map. To learn more, see 20.5 Storm systems.
of map elements, click the Options icon next to element you want to customise.
The Minimum Value option specifies the minimum wind speed for shading. Areas of wind speeds below this value
aren't shaded.
The Step option defines the size of the value range for each shaded area. In this example, the lightest shading
represents wind speeds between 8-12 knots; the next lightest shading represents speeds between 12-16 knots; and so
on.
For many map elements, there are also options available for adjusting the colour and transparency of the shading, and
for showing or hiding the value label on the edge of each shaded area.
Similar options are available for customising map elements when displayed in Line and Grid formats.
To close the Element Display Options pane, click the arrow icon at the top left of the pane.

Vessel View forecasts for the expected location of your vessel at the selected data and time on the planned
route.
Location View forecasts for a geographical location, either selected on the map, or by entering coordinates.
Tip: Check the departure and arrival times in the active passage
Before you view forecasts for your vessel, in the Routes & Passages module, make sure you've loaded an Active
Passage that has appropriate departure and arrival times.
1. In the Routes & Passages module, make sure you've loaded an Active Passage. To learn more, see 6.9 Loading a
passage.
2. In the Weather module, click the Forecasts tab.
On the map, OneOcean marks the expected position of the vessel on the route at the data and time specified in
the Playback panel. In the Selection panel, OneOcean also displays the coordinates for the vessel position.
If you specify a date and time that's later than the estimated time of arrival, OneOcean uses the arrival point as
the vessel location.
You can now use the panels below the Selection panel to view forecasts for the selected location.
click the Start playback icon, you can watch the forecast data change as OneOcean move the vessel
position along the planned route. To learn more, see 20.3 Selecting forecast dates and time.
2. Expand the Selection panel, and then select the Location option.
You can now use the panels below the Selection panel to view forecasts for the selected location.
Selecting a port
To view weather forecasts for a port:
2. Expand the Selection panel, and then select the Port option.
2. OneOcean lists the ports that match your search. Select the port you want to use.
1. At the bottom right of the map, select the Show Ports icon if it isn't already selected.
OneOcean displays ports on the map as anchor icons. At higher map magnifications, the port names are
also displayed.
In the Selection panel, if you've selected the Port option, OneOcean displays a 2-day or 5-day forecast for the port,
depending on which ChartCo weather service you're subscribed to.
Weather Description
parameter
Wind Sea Mean height (in metres) and direction of wind-generated waves.
Swell Mean height (in metres) and direction of surface gravity waves.
If you're viewing the position of your vessel on a planned route, OneOcean also displays the expected direction of
your vessel at the selected date and time.
Parametric roll:
Parametric roll is caused when the period of head waves or following waves is close to half the vessel's natural rolling
period.
Synchronous roll:
Synchronous roll is caused when the period of waves arriving in any direction is close to the vessel's natural rolling
period.
On the polar diagram, OneOcean displays zones of maximum parametric and synchronous roll for both wind-
generated waves (wind sea) and surface gravity waves (swell).
If you're viewing the position of your vessel on a planned route, OneOcean also displays the expected direction and
speed of your vessel at the selected date and time.
Direction is represented by the position around the circle. Speed is represented by the distance away from the
centre of the circle.
If data is available, the direction of wind-generated waves (wind sea) and the direction of surface gravity waves
(swell) at the selected location are represented by green and blue arrows respectively on the circumference of
the circle.
If you're viewing the position of your vessel on a planned route, OneOcean also displays the expected direction
and speed of your vessel as a blue arrow pointing outward from the middle of the circle.
At the top of the panel, OneOcean displays the average period of wind sea waves (Tsea) and the period of swell
waves (Tsw).
Initially, as in the picture above, the diagram may not show any resonance zones because your vessel's natural
rolling period (Tr) is unknown.
OneOcean can calculate your vessel's natural rolling period using vessel dimensions (in Settings > Vessel) and
your vessel's metacentric height (GM). The metacentric height is the distance between the vessel's centre of
gravity and the point about which the vessel rolls.
2. In the top left of the Vessel Resonances panel, enter your vessel's metacentric height in the GM box.
OneOcean automatically calculates your vessel's natural rolling period and enters this in the Tr box
above the diagram.
6. Alternatively, if you already know your vessel's natural rolling period, you can type this into the Tr box above the
diagram.
When the Tr box is completed, OneOcean displays the zones of maximum rolling resonance on the diagram.
Zones of resonance caused by wind-sea wave have a green border. Zones of resonance caused by swell waves have a
blue border.
Because synchronous roll is independent of vessel direction relative to the encountered waves, zones of parametric
roll are represented by bands across the diagram.
If the point of the arrow representing the expected speed and direction of your vessel falls within any of the
highlighted zones, this means that the vessel is likely to encounter higher resonant rolling effects. The closer the arrow
is to the middle of the zone, the greater the effect.
When the map is zoomed out to a low magnification, OneOcean labels tropical depressions TD and tropical storms TD.
For hurricanes and typhoons, OneOcean marks the icons with a number from 1 to 5. This is the storm system's
classification on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane wind scale (SSHWS).
The colour of the icon also indicates the strength of the storm, from light blue representing tropical depressions,
through to pink, indicating category 5 hurricanes and typhoons.
When the map is at higher magnifications, OneOcean also labels the icons with the name of the storm system and
draws the direction of travel on the map. Empty circles drawn along the direction of travel indicate the previous and
predicted size of the storm system.
If you click a row of the table that relates to a date and time in the future, OneOcean centres the map on the relevant
position.
A weather limits profile defines safety limits for parameters such as wind speed, wave height and minimum distance
from storm systems.
For each limit in the profile, you can select a warn or avoid option. When OneOcean optimises a route in the Routes
& Passages module, it automatically adjusts the route so that it doesn't exceed any of the weather limits that have the
avoid option selected. OneOcean shows a warning icon if the calculated route exceeds any weather limits that have
the warn option selected.
You can create multiple profiles that describe different situations, such as when the vessel is carrying different cargos
or loads.
2. To edit an existing profile, in the Weather Limits Profiles panel, click the pencil icon on the right of the
profile. Alternatively, to create a new profile, at the bottom of the window click Create New Profile.
The Weather Limits Profile pane opens. You can use this to review and edit the limits for the profile and to edit
the profile name.
For some limits that relate to wave height, you can also use the slider controls to adjust the range of wave periods
that you want to avoid or be warned about.
4. For each weather limit, use the radio buttons to specify what you want OneOcean to do if the limit is exceeded on
a calculated route. For most limits, there are three options:
None OneOcean takes no action if the calculated route exceed the limit.
Warn OneOcean displays a warning icon if the calculated route exceeds the limit.
Avoid If possible, OneOcean automatically adjusts the calculated route so that it doesn't exceed the limit.
5. When you've finished making changes to the profile, at the bottom of the pane, click Save.
6. To close the Weather Limits Profile pane, click the arrow icon at the top left of the pane.
In the Weather Limits Profiles panel, OneOcean includes the new or updated profile in the list of profiles.
In the Profile Summary panel, OneOcean summarises the limits for the profile that's currently selected.
To activate a weather limits profile, in the Weather module Weather Limits tab, in the Weather Limits Profiles panel,
click the vessel icon on the left of the profile name.
