A plotted point assigned as a destination marker for vehicle's path.
The tolerance of a waypoint is the distance to where the target has been met. The minimum distance allowed is 0.1 meters, to where the waypoint is recognized as met. The tolerance is completely adjustable above the .1 meter mark.
From the Mission View screen, use mouse to right-click desired waypoint location. Select Add Waypoint. The waypoint will appear in yellow and turn blue when selected.
Often pilots are required to conduct surveys, grid searches, transects, mosaics, or repeat dives previously conducted exactly. Greensea's control system provides an easy way to automate tasks by defining a mission and allowing the vehicle to autonomously conduct the mission.
