Data Capture Initiatives and Stimulus Benefits
IMSF Spring ConferenceNew Orleans, LA, USA
5 May 2009
Doug McDonald, US Army Corps of Engineers
•Public - private initiative–Barge companies–Federal agencies–Service providers–Universities
•Framework to send and receive electronic navigation information One standard message
–One standard set of codes–One time
•Leveraging–Technology–Partners
Coastal and River Information Services (CRIS)
USACE
Barge Companies
AIS Position Reports to identify
new NPI’s CDC Reporting Requirement
Web services Interface with
Industry for dynamic updates
Need to report to
Feds and each other Information on Liquid Bulk
Facilities. Updates
Provided Quarterly
Interface to provide dynamic updates on all facilities involved with
international commerce.
Portal for Port Authorities, Facility Owners, and Public to View and Update
Facility Information
Publication of Navigation Points of
Interest with standard unique IDs
GIS applications
Federal- Industry Logistics Standardization (FILS)
– Standard Location Codes for Dock Facilities– Standard River Names and Mile Points– Standard Vessel Codes– Standard Commodity Codes
A joint collaboration between Industry & Governmental Agencies to adopt a uniform nomenclature for US Navigational Points of Interest in order to improve accuracy and efficiency when sharing common information.
Guiding principles
– Accepted by Industry– Accepted by Federal Agencies– Usable in multiple transmission formats– Adhere to international standards
• Maps with facilities available on web• Coast Guard, Army Corps, IRS, CBP and
industry facility inventories compatible• Interactive Facilities Database available on the
web • Standard commodity codes: incorporate UNDG
and HS codes into one list• Standard vessel codes (including dry cargo
barges)
Near Term FILS Milestones
Master Docks Plus Managing Static Information on Navigation Points of Interest
Partnering with Academia
Integrating with S-57 and S-100 Charts

Leveraging U.S. Coast Guard Automated Identification System (AIS)
• New Coast Guard regulations expand coverage and scope of AIS
• AIS required for all U.S. navigable waters• Adds domestic vessels > 500 GRT• Improve safety• Improve data quality and coverage• Enhance other data sets: Customs, Census, etc.

Identifying and Cataloging Navigation Points of Interest
Possible New Facility
Corps e-Navigation for the 21st Century (CeNav 21)
• Leverages concepts from DoRIS (Danube River Information Service)
• Operational real time data capture at the Corps’ 196 commercial lock sites
• Transmittal of met/hydro data to the vessels in the vicinity of
locks: river stage, forecast water level, weather, ice, discharge, etc.
• Transmittal lock operational data: queue, gate settings, delays,
etc., via a local receiver or to the USCG for transmission.
Impacts of Stimulus on Data Initiatives
• Impacts are short term boosts: < 2 years for development
• Upgrade and accelerate coverage of IENC’s $3M US
• Accelerating development of CeNav-21 $3.2M US
• Accelerating Physical Infrastructure Development (US DOT)
