Producing Tools to Save Lives
Product Showcase
We were approached by the National Coastwatch of Gosport to produce a ‘Slider’ used in assisting the Coastguard to locate casualties.
If the Coastwatch have a visual of a casualty they estimate its range and bearing on a chart marked with a cross to show its position They use the slider next to the cross to determine the latitude with the scale on the right hand side and the longitude with the scale on the bottom.
This is a quick and easy process to get the longitude and latitude coordinates to the Coastguard.
Our in house design studio drew up the artwork from hand drawn diagrams as well as recreated the flag illustrations which feature on the slider. The artwork was then reverse printed to 3mm clear acrylic using the Swiss Q digital flat bed with UV cured inks.
“Very pleased with final result! Thank you for the prompt delivery. Here is our station manager Rob using the slider to plot a position on our working chart. Best wishes.
