FIELD: design of gyrocompasses and course indicating devices of analytical type. SUBSTANCE: rates of change of angles of yaw, pitch and roll of body of gyroscope are found during gyrocompassing with use of gyroscopic transmitter of angular velocity under conditions of angular and linear motion of object, angular velocities of change of latitude and longitude from linear motion of object are established and then angle of true course of measurement axis of first channel of gyroscope is computed with the aid of analytic expression with utilization of information on voltages from reference resistors of gyroscope and its drift, on angles of inclination of planes of sensitivity axes of gyroscope in pitch and roll, on angular velocity of rotation of the Earth and latitude of position of object. EFFECT: provision for possibility of gyrocompassing in presence of angular and linear velocities of object. 4 dwg
