Attribute type: Complex

Definition:

Multitude of terms and definitions specifically related to vessels. (http://en.wikipedia.org; 24 July 2010)

Sub-attribute	Camel Code Identifier	Multiplicity	Sequential
VSLCAR	vesselsCharacteristics	1	n/a
VSLVAL	vesselsCharacteristicsValue	1	n/a
VSLUNT	vesselsCharacteristicsUnit	1	n/a
COMPOP	ComparisonOperator	1	n/a

Remarks:

Distinction:

Justification:
to be completed

Comments:
VSLVAL has been set to REAL assuming 3 decimal places, i.e.: 10.000 m.

That would give the result:
1. VSLMSM [VSLCAR=4 (draught); VSLVAL=10.5; VSLUNT=1 (m); COMPOP=2 (>=) ] the regulation applies for vsl of 10.5 m draught and above
2. VSLMSM [VSLCAR=9 (deadweight); VSLVAL=2000; VSLUNT=4 (ton); COMPOP=5 (=) ] the regulation applies for vsl of exactly 2000 DWT
3. VSLMSM [VSLCAR=1 (L.O.A.); VSLVAL=150; VSLUNT=1 (m); COMPOP=3 (<)] the regulation applies for vsl of less than 150 m length

Using a further example:
4. [VSLMSM [VSLCAR=1 (L.O.A.); VSLVAL=50; VSLUNT=1 (m); COMPOP=1 (>)]], CATVSL=3 (tanker), LOGCON=1 (and), LIMTYP=2 (required); associated to a PILBOP object: tankers with LOA > 50.0 m must use the PILBOP

In an example for tankers between 50 and 100 m in length, the coding is like this:
5. [VSLMSM [VSLCAR=1 (L.O.A.); VSLVAL=50; VSLUNT=1 (m); COMPOP=1 (>)], [VSLCAR=1 (L.O.A.); VSLVAL=100; VSLUNT=1 (m); COMPOP=3 (<)]], CATVSL=3 (tanker), LOGCON=1 (and), LIMTYP=2 (required); associated to a PILBOP object: tankers with LOA > 50.0 m and < 100.0 m must use the PILBOP
