Adding these two( steaming error and settling error) calculated using the formulat, we get resultant gyro error, which is actually same as we calculate using celestial brg/ transit brg/etc.. In short, the gyro error we used to get on ship by taking brg of objects can also be calculated by determining the steaming and settling error of the gyro compass. Correct me if I'm wrong.
To be honest, gyro is not 'useless' in higher latitudes. It is considered 'unreliable'. But the modern day gyro compass is being constructed for high latitude navigation and hence can be considered more reliable than its older counterparts. The reason older gyro compass was considered unreliable north of 70 degrees North and south of 70 degrees South is because the accelerations due to coriolis force in the higher latitudes would be so high that it would be challenging for the gyro to seek and settle North for a long time.
Sir can you please tell what is difference between lattitude and steaming error as you said it drifts in N/E direction in damping error and N/S direction in steaming error that was little bit confusing if you can clear it out it will be of great help
I like how you included the solution in every errors, thank you Sir. Bs Marine transportation 1st year here.

Sir... Your explanation is very good and simple to understand.... Thanks for ur efforts..... Hope u get millions of subscribers....
Thanks a ton Mehul, very kind of you:)
Excellent explanations, much appreciated.
how often we apply correction to gyro compass??
thanks a ton sir for your videos. could you please explain why gyro is useless in higher latitudes?

Steering Mariners thank you sir ... really appreciated
@@SteeringMariners Did navigators actually document these increased errors in gyros at those extreme latitudes or were the errors primarily magnetic?
@@nathanyamaha465 always, however, these practices have now lessened since the introduction of fiber optics gyro
sir all equipment ke imo requirements bna do simple language mai
will try my best.
hy Sir what is the diffrence between Gyro error and compass error?

Good one sir
How to find gyro compass error with sun's altitude?
Sir what is settling error.
One is damping error and one is steaming error. So i m confused what is settling error
