Abstract

Interactive compilation was proven to be a practical tool in the production of Chart 2011 and Chart 2048. The successful completion of these two charts has shown that applying computer-assisted techniques as an integral part of the construction of nautical charts is an effective alternative to traditional chart compilation. The advent of fast colour graphics devices and the increasing availability of digital hydrographic data requires innovative solutions to manage and use these data effectively.
