-== Proposed attribute CATRXN ==
+two new attributes were proposed, both are placed at an appropriate place now
-[[User:Rmm|raphael]] 05:23, 17 August 2009 (UTC) : A new attribute Category of regulation / restriction / recommendation is proposed. CATRXN (Category of regulation/restriction/recommendation) is a means of categorizing regulations, restrictions, and recommendations by sailing directions topic.  Categories include pilotage, traffic, anchorages, etc. Applications would use CATRXN values when they need to collect objects of a class - for example, when they collect all information objects for a specified place that pertain to pilotage, perhaps to display a box with "all pilotage information for place X" on the screen.

-== Proposed Attribute RXNCOD ==
-[[User:Rmm|raphael]] 05:35, 17 August 2009 (UTC): RXNCOD (Regulation/restriction/regulation code) is intended to provide numeric codes that identify the information as one of the most common types of regulations (or restrictions, etc.) RXNCOD values are precise enough for an application to display specific alerts. RXNCOD values may correspond to specific text ("e.g., pilotage compulsory"). Applications could use RXNCOD to display specific strings, or provide and handle specific alerts.
-Attribute: Regulation / restriction / recommendation code
-Acronym: RXNCOD
-Attribute type: Simple
-Camel Case: rxnCode
-Data Type: Enumeration
-Definition: This attribute encodes the most common types of regulations (recommendations, restrictions).
-Values:
-	Pilotage compulsory
-	Pilot qualifications
-	Passage prohibited
-	Passage conditionally prohibited
-	Overtaking prohibited
-	Overtaking conditionally permitted
-	Restricted passage
-	Tugs
-	Quarantine and health
-	Customs
-	Loading and unloading
-	Drawbridge operations
-	Navigation prohibited
-	Right of way
-	Traffic permission required
-	Dimensional
-Definitions:
-Pilotage compulsory
-Pilotage is compulsory
-Pilot qualifications
-Pertaining to the qualifications of pilot (details described in INFORM attribute or TXTDSC file)
-Passage prohibited
-Passage prohibited at all times
-Passage conditionally prohibited
-Passage prohibited under certain weather conditions (details in INFORM or TXTDSC file)
-Overtaking prohibited
-Overtaking prohibited at all times
-Overtaking conditionally permitted
-Overtaking permitted only under certain conditions (stated in INFORM/TXTDSC file)
-Restricted passage
-Pertaining to head-on situations in restricted passages or fairways (details in INFORM or TXTDSC file)
-Tugs
-Tug assistance compulsory
-Quarantine and health
-Quarantine and health regulations (details described in INFORM or TXTDSC)
-Customs
-Customs regulations (details described in INFORM or TXTDSC)
-Loading and unloading
-Loading and unloading cargo (details in INFORM or TXTDSC)
-Drawbridge operations
-Drawbridge operations (details in INFORM or TXTDSC)
-Navigation prohibited
-Navigation prohibited
-Right of way
-Pertaining to right of way (details in INFORM or TXTDSC)
-Traffic permission required
-Permission required from an authority for transit (details in INFORM or TXTDSC)
-Dimensional
-Applicable only to vessels exceeding specified dimensions (associated chalim will specify limits)
-Remarks: This attribute encodes the most common types of regulations (recommendations, restrictions) in a form that software (e.g., ECDIS) can use to do at least some subject-specific processing. Since the details are in natural language (i.e., as text in INFORM), this will not be comprehensive, but (a) it should be possible to use this in conjunction with “chalim” in some cases to provide enhancements like automatic indicators in the ECDIS/ECS that passage is forbidden for vessels of certain size; (b) provide hints, such as a hint that pilotage is probably compulsory, etc.
-In spite of the similarity in names, they are actually have different functions: CATRXN is intended for "classifying" of 4-brothers instances; RXNCOD is designed to "identify" what the specific regulation, etc., says in a way that can be recognized by software, which allows specific alerts to be raised.
-Comments for addition of more codes, refinement or removal of codes9, 10, 11, 12, 14 invited.
