    Marine radar is used to detect objects at sea and determine their range and bearing. It works by transmitting radio waves that bounce off objects and return to the antenna, revealing their location. The antenna rotates, sweeping the radio waves in a circle and displaying returns on a plan position indicator (PPI) screen. Gyro inputs allow the PPI display to remain oriented to true north or the ship's heading for navigation. Factors like weather, terrain, and ship activity can affect the accuracy of radar images.
