The following information is about chart.
chart Defined
A nautical map. Also, to note positions and other navigational information on a chart. A charting system is a computerized storage and display instrument for charts. The chart scale is the actual distance represented by a distance on the chart. Large-scale charts (for example, with a scale of 1 inch: 50,000 inches) cover small areas in great detail, while small-scale charts (1: 1,000,000 or greater) cover large areas in limited detail. The chart projection is the way the globe is represented on flat paper so objects are correctly displayed relative to each other. Since there always will be some distortion, different projections (including Mercator and gnomic) are used, depending on the geographical area and the chart's scale. The chart table is a table on which the navigator works on charts. A Chart Kit is a trademarked booklet of charts for a region.
