The terms of the agreement allows Jeppesen Marine to use Chilean data in their new products.

The development of the Chilean MPCs will include other significant stakeholders such as the Chilean Maritime Authority and the Pilot Association of Chile who will collectively contribute to the development of these procedural charts. "This agreement is the first step in a true partnership between the highly respected Chilean HO and Jeppesen Marine. The forward looking attitude of the executives at SHOA, combined with a strong Jeppesen Marine team, will bring new navigation services to life." says Michael Bergmann, Director Maritime Industry Safety-Affairs-Services. "We believe that MPCs will be the first of these new services and offers an innovative approach which will improve navigation safety for mariners including both the navigators of the vessels as well as the highly-respected Chilean pilots."
