Omega Nautical Charts

...If a hyperbola based on another set of stations is obtained, the ship's position can be found as the intersection of the two lines. Radio navigation charts are charts that plot this hyperbola (radio lattice), and include Loran charts and Omega charts for ocean navigation, and Decca charts for coastal navigation. In addition to the above navigational charts, in a broader sense, special charts for navigational reference, academic use, production resource development, etc. are also included in the term nautical chart.
