There should be a clear indication to show that the target data is derived from radar or from AIS.

  5.28.2 For each selected tracked radar target, the following data should be presented in alphanumeric form: source(s) of data, actual range of target, actual bearing of target, predicted target range at the closest point of approach (CPA), predicted time to CPA (TCPA), true course of target, true speed of target.

  5.28.3 For each selected AIS target the following data should be presented in alphanumeric form: Source of data, ship's identification, navigational status, position where available and its quality, range, bearing, COG, SOG, CPA and TCPA. Target heading and reported rate of turn should also be made available. Additional target information should be provided on request.

  5.28.4 If the received AIS information is incomplete, the absent information should be clearly indicated as "missing" within the target data field.
