What is Marine Electronic Cartography?
Marine Electronic Cartography is basically designing, compiling, updating, and disseminating nautical charts in an electronic format which can be integrated with modern marine computers and satellite systems as well as other navigation systems. They provide greater visibility, accuracy and far more features than traditional marine cartography charts. They can be displayed three ways—on a chart-plotter, smartphone or computer. Although one major concern with marine electronic cartography is the failure of the electronic systems. Major systems under marine electronic cartography include ECS, RCDS and ECDIS, with ECDIS rising in popularity. WECDIS or ECDIS-N are military versions of ECDIS. Asia Pacific region accounts for largest market and is expected to present more opportunities with rapid urbanisation of the region and the increase in the marine trade activity.
