Pilot Program For Nautical Publication Standards18/01/2008 |
| Jeppesen Marine and Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie (BSH) have entered into a pilot project to test the feasibility of converting BSH sailing directions content into Jeppesen print and online presentations that BSH will certify as preserving the BSH content. |
|
The primary goal of this pilot project is to support the development of global standards for nautical navigation publications that can effectively be implemented in commercial products and services. BSH has contributed substantially to the effort of the IHO Standardization of Nautical Publications Working Group (SNPWG) to define a data model for nautical publications. BSH has begun restructuring the text in their sailing directions books to support this data model. Jeppesen and BSH plan to present findings of the pilot study, and samples of Jeppesen Marine's electronic outputs, to the SNPWG in April 2008.
