Introduction
An understanding of collision avoidance terminology requires an understanding of position uncertainty terminology. This lexicon therefore includes the terminology of both subjects, segregated for ease of reference.
The use of italics in the definition indicates a word or phrase that is included elsewhere in the lexicon.
The lexicon is extensive, but it is not exhaustive. It focuses on words and phrases that are unique to this discipline, particularly those that are specific to the more widely used well planning computer programs. Except where necessary to support other definitions, it intentionally avoids providing definitions of mathematical functions that can be found elsewhere, in more authoritative texts.
This document is available from the ISCWSA web site. It was first published in July 2007 and is subject to annual review and revision.
