Definition from
MarineWaypoints.com:
The process of plotting a theoretical position or future position based on advancing from a known position using speed, time, and course, without aid of objects on land, of sights, etc.
Example sentences:
Dead reckoning was the navigation method used by Columbus as revealed in a study of his log and his letters concerning his voyages. He constantly and meticulously recorded his every change of compass heading and the distance covered on that heading, which is a requirement for dead reckoning. (millersville.edu)
Of course, dead reckoning does not take into account the tide, so is of limited use in most North European waters. (Sailtrain.co.uk)
Once leeway and tide have been taken into account, the position by dead reckoning can be converted to an Estimated Position, as shown in diagram. (asianyachting.com)

V minulosti museli námořníci spoléhat na hrubé stanovení polohy. K tomu bylo potřeba, aby lodivod znal tři věci, které jsou znázorněny na ilustraci dole: (1) výchozí bod lodi, (2) její rychlost a (3) její kurz (směr plavby). Znát výchozí bod bylo snadné. Ale jak určit kurz lodi?
