Supporting Growth: Training, Conferences, Membership, and Finances
There are numerous challenges and opportunities in the evolving landscape of ECDIS usage, with discussions focused on ENCs, quality assurance, licensing, and the impact of overlapping data. Criticism has been voiced regarding the pace of progress and the capacity of ENC producers to manage additional datasets. Various issues such as gaps in ENC coverage, information overlays, and the need for effective governance and support are at the forefront of industry considerations.

Were about to enter the new era, WEND-101. Is WEND-57 a success? How do we build on the successes and address the challenges? Purpose is to stimulate discussion 3
There are 17,000+ ENCs available for ECDIS users There are 75+ active ENC Producers some have build this capability from a standing start. These ENCs have a level of quality assurance/confidence Internal / RENC / Service Provider 4
There are established routes to ECDIS Licensing, subscriptions, data supply chain, customer service/support ECDIS navigation is established and embedded National autonomy over ENCs is preserved ( Principles / Framework) 5
There are still gaps in ENC coverage, and it seems hard to focus on which gaps are most important to fill There is the unpredictable impact of overlapping data in ECDIS systems Service Providers take action in lieu of Hydrographic Office solutions (see WENDWG8) 7
Information Overlays are in use, but probably not as originally envisaged. There are cases of more than one producer producing ENCs in the same area and using different distribution chain Two vessels in a single area can have two different ENC folios! 8
There has been criticism of the speed of WEND delivery / progress Does each ENC Producer have the capacity to issue an additional dataset? What about the burden of maintaining two datasets for x years? 9
Very good progress has been made, but there is room for improvement in certain areas 10
Successes 17,000+ ENCs Successes Challenges Where are the gaps for S-101? Will we have a folio of 34,000 to manage? How do we get set for S-101 Production? How do we cope with the politics of ENC Production (boundaries, multiple producers) How do we ensure consistency? How do we build on the existing one and improve it? How do we support the transfer to ECDIS- 101? Challenges 75+ Producers Quality Assurance Distribution Chain ECDIS concept 11
