Does anyone here know if and how the IHO's S-100 data formats relate to this?
- chrisdalke 3y agoS-57 charts are a derivative product manually authored based on hydrographic survey data. They differ from the raw data a little because they include extra metadata and hand-tweaked geometry to reflect safety issues. To my knowledge S-100 is simply an updated “container” for ENC data and is replacing S-57. So it’s not necessarily related to this effort except that the new format may support gridded bathymetry data being encoded?
- maptime 3y agoThe two are mostly unrelated, IHO members are supporting seabed 2030 but the new data formats coming at the same time is more of a coincidence than anything else Although S-101 is the updated ENC standard for S-100 the new S-102 standard will enable the visualisation of processed bathymetric data by mariners, biggest benefits will be more granular no-go areas
