1. Information Management (IHO GIS, IHO website, INToGIS, …)
MBSHC-19 Meeting
30 June – 2 July 2015 (Batumi, Georgia)
Information Management (IHO GIS, IHO website, INToGIS, …)
IHB

IHO Country Information System
C-55 Development
INToGIS Project
Way ahead

3. IHO website

4. Scope of the IHO GIS Two components:
Country Information Database (to support Yearbook, etc.)
Regional Information Database
Progressive implementation of an Esri-based GIS
provide a more efficient environment for development work
facilitate access to various layers of information through:
the IHO website
various sophisticated cloud-based on-line GIS options

5. IHO Country Information Database

6. IHO Country Information Database
Reported to Member States in IHO CL 23/2014
In-house system based on PostgreSQL

7. IHO Country Information Database
Collates information on IHO Member States (MS) and other coastal States
Automated production of the IHO Yearbook (P-5) and related lists
Access limited to IHB staff through the IHB internal network
Future developments
Interactive format for consulting P-5
Production of GIS layers
Internet interface for updating the data

8. Objectives of the IHO ENC Catalogue
IMO MSC.1 / Circ (adopted at MSC 95) on ECDIS – Guidance for Good Practice
“The IHO provides an online chart catalogue that details the coverage of ENCs together with references to coastal State guidance on any requirements for paper charts (where this has been provided). The catalogue also provides links to IHO Member States’ websites where additional information may be found. The IHO online chart catalogue can be accessed from the IHO website.”
IHO Strategic Performance Indicator No.2
“Growth in ENC coverage worldwide, as reported in the IHO on-line catalogue, relative to the existing gap in adequate coverage (as defined by IMO/NAV) from the benchmark 01 Aug. 2008”

11. Demonstration - Simple interface
Side bar
(legend, layer select, base map select and print)

12. Demonstration - Selection of layers
Selectable layers by
usage band

13. Demonstration - Settings
-transparency
-sequence of the layers

14. Demonstration - Attributes
Pop up window providing detailed information
on clicking the feature

15. Demonstration - Attributes
Detailed information can be displayed on request

16. Demonstration - Overlay with other information
Overlaid with the other layer
Port information derived from “World Port Index” of NGA PUB.150

17. C-55 Development
> Standards & Publications > Download > C-55

18. C-55 Development
Transfer of the current content of C-55 (composite indicators) into a database structure
Assessment of spatial analysis and graphical displays
pick report,
colour overlays associated with significant features (coastline, etc.)
Revision of the update procedure (user friendly interface)
Future developments:
inclusion of CATZOC polygons to provide an initial geo-referenced quality layer (as discussed at IRCC-4)
RENCs are invited to seek the consent of their members to provide CATZOC information to the IHB for inclusion in C-55

19. INToGIS (supported by KHOA)
Transfer of the S-11 Part B (all INT Chart Regions) into the IHO GIS Environment and provision of associated web services to IHO MS
From pdf versions …to web services (maintenance tools, search functions, possibility of queries and statistical analysis, uploading/downloading functions, track history…)
For who?
IHO MS, International Charting Coordination WGs / INT Chart Coordinators, IHB
More dynamic and straightforward updating process… but iaw S-11 Part A “policy” and rights management
Foundation: Version-controlled of Regional Databases (... Region B, version 3.0.2, March 2016,.. ), S-100-compliant model

23. Demonstration

24. Demonstration
This is the beginning screen when we connect to that web-site. You can change the map style to satellite image, google maps and bathymetry map.
You can search data using some options like INT region, Producer Nation publication status and so on.

25. Demonstration
This is the result of searching with INT region option F.
The metadata of map is shown when you click one of the results.
You can download the results as xls, pdf, gml and shp format.
