Hello everyone, I am a Deck Cadet studying at Plymouth university, UK. As I am new to maritime industry with little sea going experience, there is still lot to learn. Currently I am conducting my BSc final year project ‘impacts on Situational Awareness (SA) with use of ECDIS integrated system’. I would really appreciate if any of ECDIS users - Bridge Officers and Cadets could take part in my survey.The link to my survey is: [https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/KFMKZZ7](https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/KFMKZZ7) The survey includes multiple choice and also open-ended questionnaire, however your answers would be very important for concluding a genuine result of my project. Please feel free to contact me if you have any queries about it. Thank you ---
