Difference between Chip log and Knot (unit)

Chip log vs. Knot (unit)

A chip log, also called common log, ship log, or just log, is a navigation tool mariners use to estimate the speed of a vessel through water. The knot is a unit of speed equal to one nautical mile per hour, exactly 1.852 km/h (approximately 1.15078 mph).

Similarities between Chip log and Knot (unit)

Chip log and Knot (unit) have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Dead reckoning, Foot (unit), Hour, Hourglass, Knot, Nautical mile, Navigation, Speed.

Dead reckoning

In navigation, dead reckoning is the process of calculating one's current position by using a previously determined position, or fix, and advancing that position based upon known or estimated speeds over elapsed time and course.
