1st Phase " TRAINING "
It consists in hydrograpic qualification of the necessary personnel (20 people in total) through participation in courses already set up at Italian HO and periodic refreshing courses . The initiative is inclusive of expenses for attending courses / conduct practical training / food -lodging .
At the end of the training every hydrographer will be able to conduct a survey, process data and will have all the key skills to work at the Hydrographic Office.
2nd Phase " VEHICLES AND EQUIPMENT ACQUISITION":
This phase could start when two Cat A and two cat B or NCOs finish the courses
It consists in acquisition of a survey boat for port and coastal surveys ( called " idrobarca" ) complete with all the necessary equipment and moreover in testing the functionality of a suitable vessel if present in the Nation/State for the high seas, already available with the eventual integration / replacement / operational hydrographic equipment upgrade.
The vessels will be able to acquire data from extremely shallow to deep water. Data acquired will be compliant with all the international hydrographic rules imposed by IHO (shallow water surveys will respect the IHO S44 Special Order standard).
After the processing of acquired data the surveyors will be able to produce and print out a fairsheet with soundings, contours, coastline and lights-aims to navigation.
Basically, the equipment to be delivered in this phase consists of:
one new hydrographic boat
hydrographic equipment for the boat: shallow water echosounders (Singlebeam, Multibeam, Sub Bottom Profiler), digital Side Scan Sonar and IMU-POS/MV sensors, etc.;
topographic (total station and level) and geodetic equipment (RTK/Geodetic GPS) for land surveys;
integration of existing hydrographic equipment a board Cana Vessel (CNRS);
hydrographic and geo-topographic software;
tutoring (on site recommended). 10

3rd Phase " CONSOLIDATION OF PRODUCTION CAPACITY "
Is to provide , National Hydrographic Service, a hydrographic data management capabilities of production and systematic updating of nautical charts and publications and organizing, in situ , a service for the collection and dissemination of nautical information capable of interfacing with NAVAREA service, already active in the Mediterranean.
Developing the capabilities of the first and second phases, at the end of this phase the National Hydrographic Service will be able to accomplish all the tasks highlighted in the third chapter of the IHO publication M-2 “The Need for The Need for National Hydrographic Services”.
Basically, the equipment to be delivered in this phase consists of:
hydrographic database software (Sounding/Bathymetric DB)
cartographic software (Hydrographic and Chartographic Production Database)
print on demand capabilities
tutoring (on site recommended)
4th Phase " COOPERATION MAINTENANCE"
Is to provide the possible opening of an Officer position, expert in hydrography, in support of the National Hydrographic Service. 11
