I have already imported the data into the nautical dataset in accordance with the S57 standard.Now I want to add a time dimension to view the electronic chart at a particular moment. What should I do? Do I need to enable the time attribute for each object? Can the entire dataset be set up as a whole?

Hello @songqin ,
It depends on what time you are referring to. The maritime data models have editor tracking fields by default, so if you are interested in seeing data based on the modification time, you can use the "Last modified date" field. You'll need to enable time for each layer in the map using Layer Properties, see: Set time properties on data
If you are interested in seeing your data based on a different time information, you will need to add additional fields to your feature classes to store that information. You can use batch mode with the Add Field tool to add the date fields to multiple feature classes at once. If you need to calculate a specific time afterwards, the Calculate Field tool can be used.
Hope this helps,
Paulina
