From a situation awareness point of view, it is better to have chart, GPS position, radar image and AIS data all superimposed on a good display. However, if the screen fails, you've lost all systems. Separate screens for each instrument resolves that problem but at the cost of increased work load. I suppose the ideal is to have duplicated systems.
