Summary of Changes

• Language in presentation library simplified and clarified.

• Elimination of multiple options to perform the same task.

• New sections added for notification of navigational hazards, detection of areas for special conditions and detection of safety contours.

• Clear guidance on what objects and attributes will trigger an alert or indication in the ECDIS, reducing extraneous alarms.

• Display of text added to selected features. For instance, anchorage areas and fairways names can now be shown on the chart display.

• Numerous changes to the ENC symbol catalogue, with more standardization.

E-Navigation- Boon or Woes

11

ECDIS- assisted Accidents

• Of course the Negative part always is most Prominent

• Training always has been the most neglected part

“Lack of ECDIS-specific training, poorly placed bridge equipment and a master’s lack of support for an inexperienced third officer played key roles in the grounding of CSL Thames,”

• A Mandatory Evil

E-Navigation- Boon or Woes

•Ovit: Moody Crew, Dodgy ECDIS, Inexperience And A Shy Master•ICS Welcomes IMO On ECDIS ‘Operating Anomalies’•CSL Thames Grounding: Not Enough ECDIS Training•IMO Wants ECDIS Glitches Confidentially•Article of Note: ECDIS Part 3 : Problems!!•Will ECDIS Ground?

E-Navigation –Safe Ships

• Seamless real time information exchange with shore side agencies e.g VTS, Port Authorities, Pilots etc

• Communication networks and connected DATA Clouds-Common Maritime Data Structure

• Display of information as a Layers on ENC

• Bigger and more realistic (head-up) Display for better situational awareness

18

e-Navigation-Opportunities- EfficienSea

• Bringing METOC information to vessels

• Exchanging routes, ship-ship, ship-shore

• New AIS features (synthetic AIS, virtual AIS and application specific messages)

• MSI and NtM to vessels

• Further services are being discussed, and the idea is to continuously introduce new services to the test bed through the duration of the collaboration.

19

e-Navigation-Opportunities- EfficienSeaFurther ideas for services include:

• Dynamically calculated no-go areas

• Exchange of course predictor

• Simplifying information exchange between ship/shore (reporting) Risk assessment tool for VTS

• Graphical presentation of data integrity

• Interactive and online administrative information integrated in chart system

• Positioning backup system based on radar and AIS

• 3D view

• Sharing of radar targets

• Showing visual range of AtoN in chart

• Experimenting with e-Navigation "standard" mode (s-mode)

• Adding and exchanging information about VHF usage

• Adding further vessel information to chart, like presence of pilot

• Collision avoidance tool

Technology is moving Fast – the training as well as Mariners need to match the Pace
