Resumen

A new service to mariners is now available that can broadcast both electronic and paper chart updates directly to vessels at sea. This gives the mariner an affordable and future-proof path to immediate access to the latest data available from hydrographic offices, enhancing safety and easing the job of the mariner in keeping charts properly updated. The broadcast service also provides the mariner with other navigational data such as precision position fixing, weather and sea state forecasts.
