Celestial: simply a error between 0 and set maximum (maximum error can be set in OFEV) applied to real position. Dead reckoning: an error based on distance between fixes, so more time passes between fixes, bigger the maximum error.

There is no way to program navigator taking a fix on land, so near the coast you're better off calculating position yourself.
