HSI is the acronym for '''Horizontal Situation Indicator'''. Sometimes it is also called '''Pictorial Navigation Indicator'''. It combines a standard '''Directional Gyro''' (DG) and '''Course Deviation Indicator''' (CDI) into one single instrument and reduces the pilots workload by displaying the aircraft's heading and position relative to a desired course in a compact manner.
