1. An apparatus, comprising:

  • a master navigation component that establishes a first coordinate system; and

    one or more slave navigation components that determine navigation measurement data of the one or more slave navigation components each in their own secondary coordinate system;

    wherein the one or more slave navigation components provide the navigation measurement data of the one or more slave components each in their own secondary coordinate system to the master navigation component;

    wherein the master navigation component compares the navigation measurement data of the one or more slave components each in their own secondary coordinate system to navigation measurement data for the master navigation component in the first coordinate system;

    wherein the master navigation component translates the navigation measurement data of the one or more slave navigation components in the second coordinate system into navigation measurement data of the one or more slave navigation components in the first coordinate system.
