11. A vehicle information display apparatus comprising:
-
a vehicle position information extractor for receiving vehicle identification signals transmitted from vessels and extracting at least position information indicating the positions of the vessels from the vehicle identification signals;
a target acquisition/tracking device for acquiring and tracking targets based on target echo data fed from a radar; and
a controller for displaying first symbols indicating the positions or velocity vectors of the individual vessels obtained by said vehicle position information extractor as well as second symbols indicating the positions or velocity vectors of the individual targets obtained by said target acquisition/tracking device on a single display device, wherein said controller displays the first symbols with higher priority over the second symbols at and in the proximity of a position where any of the first symbols is displayed. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

20. A vehicle information display apparatus for installation on a vessel, said apparatus comprising:
-
a receiver for receiving vehicle information transmitted from other vessels, the vehicle information including at least position information indicating the positions of the other vessels;
an area setter for setting an area based on the distance from and the direction relative to the vessel;
a vehicle information extractor for extracting the vehicle information on a vessel existing within the set area from the vehicle information received by the receiver; and
a display device for displaying the vehicle information with greater emphasis placed on the vehicle information extracted by the vehicle information extractor than on the unextracted vehicle information. - View Dependent Claims (21)
