Notes and Terms related to building a product specification

In an effort to transition from paper-based books to a more data-centric information system, these product specifications were decided by the group. The information stored in N-Pubs were broken into manageable thematic information blocks that could be assigned to individuals within the group who are subject-matter experts.

The following pages contain discussion and work being done on each specific product specification (an * means there is no sample data so the page is rather empty, highlighted are being "intensively worked on"):

S-122 - Marine Protected Areas

describing protected areas and related features, regulations, and similar information about protected areas.

S-123 - Marine Radio Services

indicating the location, availability, type of radio communications, frequencies, and content of radio services for navigational information and other maritime radio communications.

S-124 Navigational Warnings*

not under NIPWG responsibility

S-125 - Navigational Services

describing navigationally features including lights and other navigation aids, both physical and virtual, temporary and seasonal marks, and local AIS application-specific messages.

S-126 - Marine Physical Environment

describing marine and terrestrial topography, prevailing, seasonal, and hazardous currents, tides, weather, and other environmental conditions.

S-127 - Marine Traffic Management
