3. Agenda #20 – Routines regarding MSI during winter conditions
FINLAND (Baltico Meeting 2018)
Agenda #20 – Routines regarding MSI during winter conditions
MSI
In the beginning of winter (Nov-Dec) issued general warning regarding winter effect for AtoNs (broadcasted in VHF and Navtex)
In spring (Apr-May) issued general warning regarding unreliable AtoNs after winter (broadcasted in VHF)
Issued individual warnings regarding of some AtoN faults, which are highly critical for navigation (Turku Radio operator evaluates situations)
All AtoN faults are available in web map ( > press Show/Hide safety device failures )
NtM
In section of general instructions is permanent warning regarding of winter effect for AtoNs
Also in spring (Apr-May) is published reminding notice regarding of unreliable AtoNs after winter

4. Agenda #21 – Monitoring of Navtex broadcasts
FINLAND (Baltico Meeting 2018)
Agenda #21 – Monitoring of Navtex broadcasts
At this moment we don’t have means and equipments to monitor Navtex broadcasts

5. Agenda #22 - Relationship between NtM and MSI (and ER)
FINLAND (Baltico Meeting 2018)
Agenda #22 - Relationship between NtM and MSI (and ER)
Example Case
Warning (broadcasted)
Warning (Web)
NtM ER
Remarks
Short-term AtoN missing or light not working
in main fairways Y N
in small fairways
N (but current AtoN faults are visible in web map)
Aton faults in web map: --> press Show/Hide safety device failures )
Long-term AtoN repair works in main fairways
if information is received in advance (> ~3weeks)
N (Y if highly critical for navigation)
N / Y
if information is not received in advance (< ~3weeks)
Warning is removed when information has been published in NtM at least 10 days
Main fairway closed during winter due to ice road between mainland and island
Major firing exercise (e.g. missile exercise)
Minor firing exercise
List of all firing exercises are available in web (Finnish Defence Forces)
Cable/pipe laying and other construction operations in major fairway/TSS
 If operation is long lasting NtM & ER
We have some main principles for managing relationship between MSI and NtM - based on type cases. But there will be always some special cases, which have to evaluate case-by-case.
MSI-coordinator is working in Hydrographic Office as a team manager of chart updatings, which supports synchronization between MSI, NtM and ER.
Development idea In these cases, we could leave warning in web list as long case is valid, but stop broadcasting it soon after it is issued in NtM. All valid warnings have to be in system, when producing S-124 product.
