Abstract
A method of controlling navigation for a marine vessel includes receiving a user input via a user input device identifying at least one selectable priority for path planning, defining a prioritized navigation pathway through a marine navigation area based on the at least one selectable priority for path planning indicated by the user input between a vessel location and a navigation target location, generating a display image representing the marine navigation area and the prioritized navigation pathway, and displaying the display image on a display device.
