Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide accurate and intuitive control over the display of sonar image data provided by sonar systems for mobile structures. A sonar system includes a user interface and a logic device configured to receive and display multiple different sonar image data sets from multiple different types of transducer modules to a user. The logic device is configured to render a historical view selector on a display of the user interface, where the historical view selector is configured to provide for selection of a particular view time in a period of time corresponding to the first and/or second sonar image data, receive user input identifying a selected view time within the range of time, and render first and second portions of the first and second image data corresponding to the selected view time on the display of the user interface.
