Resumen

The National Ocean Survey is automating the processes required to create and maintain nautical charts. Automated techniques have been introduced in three basic areas : data management, interactive graphics, and management reporting. The National Ocean Survey Automated Information System (NOS/AIS) uses some of the latest advancements in data processing to perform these functions. An online geographically oriented data base coupled with an array of interactive graphics systems enables cartographers to maintain up-to-date charts.
