Resumen

Recent events found the Canadian Hydrographic Service at a crossroads. A number of concurrent pressures seriously challenged the organisation's ability to produce, print, correct and distribute nautical charts, both from a financial perspective as well as a human resource perspective. While facing some difficult decisions, it became apparent that a number of relatively recent technologies could be combined to allow many of these challenges to be met. This paper describes the events that transpired, how the challenges were addressed using new technologies, and what the future may hold, as opportunities to refine and augment the application of new technologies are identified.
