Harmonization of Inland ENCs
  • Inland ENC Harmonization Group (IEHG) founded in
    2003
  • USA, Canada, Europe, Russia
  • Development of a common standard
  • Common Encoding Guide as first step
  • Goal recognition as special profile within the
    next edition of IHO S-57

Latest developments
  • Directive on River Information Services (RIS) of
    the European Union
  • Binding standard for Inland ENCs
  • Obligation for member states to provide Inland
    ENC coverage for major waterways (class V and
    above)

Status of harmonization
  • ENCs (Inland ENCs and pure S-57 ENCs) are
    currently available for 13 000 km of inland
    waterways
  • More than 2500 vessels are already equipped with
    Inland ENCs in Europe
  • We have started to establish a digital Inland
    Register in accordance with the future IHO S-100
    (test bed)
  • The new harmonized edition of the European Inland
    ECDIS standard has been presented to the Central
    Commission for Navigation on the Rhine and the
    RIS Committee of the EU and will be adopted in
    autumn

Status of harmonization
  • The harmonized Encoding Guide for Inland ENCs is
    already used in some countries
  • By mid 2007 all the ENCs in Europe and the US
    will be produced in accordance with the
    harmonized standard for Inland ENCs
