The software also includes a graphical map of the night sky, that enables the user to locate the standard stars utilised in celestial navigation. The LOP traces can be optionally displayed on actual map images (from OpenStreetMaps), that will (optionally) automatically download and save to a user selected directory. The observations are used to automatically fix the users location by 'Line of Positions' (LOP). The AstralNav software is designed to calculate the geographical position of a user, from celestial observations, (like those from a sextant).
