Outline

• Main principles
• Experiences
4e-NAV CONFERENCE, ROYAL NORWEGIAN NAVAL ACADEMY, Thursday 5th march 2009
Preparations
• Draw up routines and procedures– How to utilise the advantage of the new system
• Ensure proper familiarisation and operator training– Basic IMO ECDIS course module– Type-specific ECDIS familiarisation– Simulator training– Knowledge of electronic charts– Onboard training
5e-NAV CONFERENCE, ROYAL NORWEGIAN NAVAL ACADEMY, Thursday 5th march 2009
Main principles
• Use ENCs where available• Use the same principles as with paper
charts– Navigation aids– Preparations should allow for simple
verifying by radar
• Verify GPS-position displayed on ECDIS
• Main focus is still out the windows..
6e-NAV CONFERENCE, ROYAL NORWEGIAN NAVAL ACADEMY, Thursday 5th march 2009
Experiences (1)
• Time-consuming familiarisation– Especially with regard to capabilities and
limitations– Still need better knowledge of the ENC
7e-NAV CONFERENCE, ROYAL NORWEGIAN NAVAL ACADEMY, Thursday 5th march 2009
Experiences (2)
• Tradition– New generation of navigators
• Education– Requires a lot of time
• Good procedures can get you a long way
8e-NAV CONFERENCE, ROYAL NORWEGIAN NAVAL ACADEMY, Thursday 5th march 2009
Experiences (3)• IMO approval and special requirements for
combat vessels– Connection to combat information center (CIC) on
board
• Transition period– New vessels = golden opportunity
• Caveats– RNoN now follows the same rules as all civilian
shipping– Maritime certificates
9e-NAV CONFERENCE, ROYAL NORWEGIAN NAVAL ACADEMY, Thursday 5th march 2009
Summary
• Education took a lot more time than we expected – still not quite there..
• Advantages given to us by e-nav are not yet fully incorporated
• This will change with new vessels fully operational.
