Abstract
A method for determining a substitute distance between a location and a substitute impact point of a projectile in a horizontal plane common with the location, the method determining a target distance between the location and a target arranged on a sight line, and the method determining an elevation angle formed by the sight line with the horizontal plane, wherein an equivalent horizontal distance is calculated as a substitute distance by correcting the target distance with at least one correction coefficient dependent on the elevation angle.
