• Summary and concluding remarks

IMO‘s e-Navigation Definition

„E-Navigation is the

harmonized collection, integration, exchange, presentation and analysis of maritime information

onboard and ashore

by electronic means

to enhance berth to berth navigation and related services

for safety and security at sea and protection of the marine environment.”

IALA‘s role

(IALA = International Association of Marine Aids-to-Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities)

Development of common shore-basede-Navigation system architecture /1

(future)IALA Recommendations,

IALA Guidelines +IALA Manuals on e-Navigation

for IALA National Members

Long standing mandate of IALA for mutual support of

Aids-to-Navigation/VTS authorities(IALA national membership)

IMO‘s invitation toIALA for participationin the implementation

of e-Navigation

IALA Contributionsto IMO documents

IALA activities fore-Navigation

IALA‘s goals regarding e-Navigation:

– To co-ordinate the implementation of e-Navigation for international, shore-based stake-holders, globally.

2. Prepare IALA itself for the implementation of e-Navigation=> „Thinking in e-Navigation on a global scale“

3. Prepare IALA (national) members for the pending implementation of e-Navigation => Recommendations, Guidelines, Manuals for IALA membership on e-Navigation


„Draft IALA Recommendation e-NAV 101on the e-Navigation Architecture – the Shore Perspective“

Content overview:

- the double mandate of IALA

- driving forces

- fundamental principles: overarching and shore-based system architecture

- impact of e-Navigation on IALA as an organization, and its documentation

- dependencies: GNSS/WWRNS, infrastructure


Summary and

concluding remarks

Fundamental statements appliedto the „three sides of the coin“

ComputerComputer

Domäne

Internationally agreed, holistic, flexible, and common

shore-based e-Navigation system architecture

Internationally agreed, precise and open link

descriptions („signal-in-air“)

focus on applications (Information flow peer-to-peer

= from ultimate information sourceto ultimate information sink)

User requirements / peer-to-peer applications – not so much new under the sun!?“

existing, well-knownuser requirements

+ applications:VTS, Aids-to-Navigation,

AIS integration, radio navigation,

shore data exchange

genuinely new e-Nav user-requirements + e-Nav applications

Need tobe created, evaluated

and internatio-

nally defined

existing definitions needs to be

inter-nationally documen-

ted and harmonised

Thank you for your attention!
