Widespread adoption of the S-100 standard may be some way off, but it pays to familiarize yourself with the new data dawn set to break over the industry.
As you may know, S-100 will be a game-changer. The flat 2D nature of S-57 ENCs will be enriched by high resolution and 3D representations of the marine environment, with layer upon layer of data overlaid onto charts empowering safer, more efficient and smarter business and operational decision making.
All of a sudden you won’t just see a basic, static chart, but a flexible, integrated and constantly updated representation of, for example, surface currents, under keel clearance, tides, weather, traffic, bathymetric data, and much, much more. This will push situational awareness and planning to new heights, unlocking major commercial and environmental gains.
Do you want a head start on S-100 – getting a taste of the benefits, future-proofing
competency and familiarizing yourself with the future of smart shipping today?
We’re delighted to be able to offer S-101 Electronic Navigational Chart (ENC), S-102 Bathymetric Surface Data, S-111 Surface Currents and S-104 Water Level on NavStation now, helping your organization get to grips with a new navigational reality and easing adoption as more and more data becomes available.
Get ahead of the curve and position yourself at the vanguard of progress with NAVTOR and NavStation. Please do get in touch to find out more!
