Worldwide ENC Database Working Group (WENDWG) SWPHC16 Update Submitted by Jamie McMichael-Phillips, WENDWG Chair International Hydrographic Organization Organisation Hydrographique Internationale South West Pacific Hydrographic Commission
WENDWG Purpose To advise IRCC to enable highest societal value of Member State effort by: Facilitating a world-wide consistent level of high-quality, updated official ENCs through integrated services that support chart carriage requirements of SOLAS Chapter V, and the requirements of the IMO Performance Standards for ECDIS and Reviewing options, and recommending actions, that expand the value of the Worldwide ENC Database to all marine data users applying data management principles.

Overlapping ENCs IHO community needs to do much more to manage, and wherever possible eliminate, overlapping data. IHO Resolution on elimination of overlapping ENC Data in areas of demonstrable risk to safety of navigation. (Approved Feb 18) International Hydrographic Organization Organisation Hydrographique Internationale 5 South West Pacific Hydrographic Commission
Overlapping ENCs One-year clock to resolve overlaps should begin once overlapping issues, starting with the potential highest risk cases, have been reported to ENC producers. Management of overlap cases should be implemented by RHCs, reporting to IRCC and keeping WENDWG informed. RHCs should make own assessment of level of navigational risk for ENC overlaps using IC ENC Policy on Risk Assessment as a first step where applicable.

IHO ENC Catalogue Catalogue now well publicised by IMO. ECDIS Guidance for Good Practice (MSC.1/Circ1503/Rev1 dated June 2017) More user-friendly version next. Ongoing work to link to INT Chart Web Catalogue and AIS traffic density database.

Implementation of WEND Principles At IHO level, need to better understand,, coverage & overlaps issues across regions RHCs reports on implementation of ENC Schemes are a crucial management information Existing IHO ENC Coverage catalogue used as initial mechanism to build ENC Schemes database within INToGIS II. Once system commissioned, RHCs should define and adopt ENC schemes for submission.

Breakout Sessions RENCs might consider offering S-57 licence management service to support safety of navigation for all classes of vessels. Explore options to support GEBCO Seabed 2030. initiative. US and NO to resubmit their paper to IRCC, seeking guidance on the possible expansion of the WENDWG scope.
