CARIS HOM AML 2.0 SP1

Release: November 2004

Service Pack 1: August 2005; contains over 60 fixes

and enhancements

Highlights:• Support for v1.0 and v2.0 of AML product

specifications• Tool to convert AML v1.0 data sets to v2.0• Object Import Utility now supports ESRI SHP files as

a data source and allows coordinate transformations to be done on input data

CARIS HOM AML 2.0 SP1AML v1.0 and v2.0 support

Import, edit, create and update/maintain v1.0 and v2.0

AML data• Select and switch between AML product profiles at

any time• All operations including QC/QA and product creation

will be based on the active product profile

Select an AML product profile (e.g. CLB 2.0)

CARIS HOM AML 2.0 SP1Intelligent AML v1.0 to v2.0 conversion

Tool to easily convert AML v1.0 data sets to v2.0• Conversion rules are stored in an editable lookup

table in XML format• Tool can be run on one or more data sets (batch

mode)• All modifications performed (e.g. ‘Replace object’) are

written to a log file for review

CARIS HOM AML 2.0 SP1Enhanced Object Import Utility

Import geometry (point, line, area) and attribution from

ESRI SHP files

Transform coordinates in input data ‘on-the-fly’ during

import

• Users specify the coordinate system for the input data set. Doing so ensures coordinates being imported are correctly transformed.

• List of available coordinate systems is stored in an editable ASCII file; new coordinate systems can be defined at any time.

CARIS HPDWhat is HPD?• CARIS HPD offers a new and innovative solution to

managing digital hydrographic, and other, data in an efficient and integrated multi-user, seamless, database-driven environment (Oracle)

• CARIS HPD allows for a single copy of source data features to be maintained, from which multiple product types (e.g. S-57 ENC, paper chart, AML) can be derived and managed, at many different scale ranges

No suites of separate data files to manage.

CARIS HPD

HPD Data Model Advantages

HPD has adopted state of the art data models (S-57, VPF,

OGC). Some of the benefits:

• Allows a feature to have multiple representations• Shared geometry• Feature generalization relationships• Individual object lineage (history and tracking)• Data certification and integrity• Oracle integrity constraints, referential integrity

and data security are leveraged by HPD

CARIS HPD and AML

Support for AML is being implemented in CARIS HPD• CARIS HPD Source Editor – Compile and manage source data• New CARIS HPD AML Editor – Create AML products from source

data

UKHO test AML data sets loaded in HPD Source Editor

Scale band 6 CLB product created in HPD AML Editor

RAL product created in HPD AML Editor
