Check out Rafael Ponce's Hydro International article! Out now...

What is the "speed of trust"?

How do we visualize and materialize the evolution of a central database production system, into a true geospatial agency, developing a hydrospatial information system capable of providing products and services, for multidimensional analysis and decision-making through apps and web browsers?

Rafael Ponce, Esri's Global Maritime Consultant, presents a paper on what the next frontier for hydrographic offices might look like. 

Let's join him on this journey!

July 28th and 29th 2020

In this webinar, we will cover multiple elements in ArcGIS Maritime, including the following:

•  S-57 and S-101 in ArcGIS Pro
• Electronic and paper nautical charts with ArcGIS Maritime

The ArcNews Summer 2020 Issue carries a great article on how Nautical Charts are undergoing a transformation to become completely digitized with the help of GIS technology.

The ArcGIS Maritime team has been on the forefront of making this electronic-first endeavor, where all the data is pulled from one standardized, GIS-based system. 

“This is completely turning on its head how traditional paper charts are made. These charts are still going to be safe for navigation, but they’re going to look different. It’s a big change.”

And it’s where the industry, by and large, is heading.

NOAA recently announced plans to sunset the production of paper charts starting in 2020, with no new edition paper charts available after January 2025.

Commercial ship crews saw this shift coming, but the announcement created a backlash with recreational boaters.

With the overlap and many scales, the original raster chart set has a great deal of duplication. It takes a lot of work to find and update any feature. If a navigation buoy is repositioned, for instance, its new location has to be marked on all the charts where it appears—at all scales and accounting for all overlaps.

Esri Industry Expert Steve Snow digs deeper into the past, present and future of Charting in this ArcGIS Blog.

In this webinar, you will learn about:

Increase the value of your bathymetric data using modern tools!! 

Management of bathymetric data for navigational depths and under keel clearance is critical for a port's operations and competitiveness.

This webinar highlights how you can leverage your bathymetric data for better analysis and planning of your berths and harbor terminals and how this information can become a vital component of your port's digital information strategy for success.

ArcGIS Maritime Senior Consultant Rafael Ponce is currently attending the International Hydrographic Organization's MSDI working group.

As the Federal Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure (BSH) plays an excellent host, the symposium is establishing the guidelines and exchanging experiences in implementing MSDIs, the future (and present) of hydrographic offices moving from product makers (charts) to authoritative hydrographic data providers, effectively bringing sea and land together for its broad use, leveraging the advantages of S-100, and redefining how these agencies should be in the coming decade.
