Changes in IEC & IHO Standards for ECDIS Information on changes for Transas Navi-Sailor ECDIS users January 2016
Introduction CHANGES IN IHO AND IEC STANDARDS ECDIS users provided feedback on various issues, such as: Anomalies in ENC chart display Differences in display of alarms and warnings Increased degree of alarm fatigue due to continuous alarm sounds No standards for display of symbols and abbreviations among different manufacturers New editions of IHO and IEC standards will increase safety and usability of ECDIS IHO and IEC revised standards to reflect the feedback given by current users of ECDIS Standards have been published August 2015 and old standards will be withdrawn August 2017 There will be no grandfather clause allowing old systems to remain in place like in the past 8
Introduction CHANGES IN IHO AND IEC STANDARDS The new standards will replace the old editions completely in August 2017 Following IHO standards have been updated Following IEC standards have been changed: and implemented: «Specifications for Chart Content & IEC «ECDIS – Operational and performance S-52 Display Aspects of ECDIS» (Ed. 6.1) 61174 requirements, methods of testing and required test results» (Ed. 4.0) S-52 «Presentation Library» (Ed. 4.0) Annnex A «Presentation of navigation-related IEC information on shipborne navigational 62288 S-63 «Data Protection Scheme» (Ed. 1.2) displays – General requirements, methods of testing and required test results“ (Ed. 2.0) S-64 «Test Data Sets for ECDIS» (Ed. 3.0) 9
