Discover dKart Evolution – Navigating the Future of Maritime Data
This presentation outlines the transition from S-57 to a combined S-57/S-101 environment using the innovative dKart Evolution platform. Learn how tokenization, automation, and next-generation editing tools help overcome the challenges of budget constraints and resource demands during the S-100 migration. A must-read for professionals in maritime cartography and digital navigation.
The presentation features the dKart Evolution S-101 system, which describes the transition from hydrographic standards S-57 to S-101, focusing on automation, data compatibility, and cost-efficiency. We offer a "token-based" linguistic model for converting S-57 to S-101 and propose the use of automation modules such as dKart TOKENIZER and DELTA to streamline the chart creation process and ensure a gradual transition.
ENC for Autonomous Navigation
In this episode, we dive into the role of Electronic Navigational Charts (ENCs) in autonomous navigation. The discussion explores how ENCs, originally designed for manual navigation, often lead to data overload, hindering automation. We also cover challenges like bathymetric data gaps and propose solutions to make ENCs more compatible with automated route generation for safer, more efficient navigation.
