Abstract

The production of Electronic Navigational Charts (ENC) at the Hydrographic Institute of the Republic of Croatia (HIRC) started in 2001 covering the area of the northern Adriatic. At the time when ENC production started for the Middle Adriatic, which is a typical example of an archipelagic sea, it was concluded that implementation of the currently known methodologies for on-line generalisation using SCAMIN attributes led to apparent density of objects on the computer screen. Therefore, on the basis of the Canadian method, a new methodology of using SCAMIN attributes was suggested to be applied to a wider area of the Sibenik harbour.
