    The document summarizes the performance standards for Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems (ECDIS) set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) resolution MSC 232 (82). The standards require that ECDIS equipment must be able to display navigational charts and information accurately and reliably to ensure safe navigation. It must also provide alerts in case of malfunctions, allow for easy chart updating, reduce the navigational workload, and meet display and accuracy requirements. The resolution also outlines standards for route monitoring, recording voyages, sensor input, testing malfunctions, backup arrangements, and power supply.

    TOPIC IMO Performance

    Standards ECDIS MSC 232 (82)


    Performance Standards IMO resolution
    The ECDIS must meet the performance standards of the IMO
    resolution (Maritime Safety Circular) MSC 232 (82) adopted on December
    5, 2006. These standards highlight the following points:

     The function of an ECDIS is primarily safe navigation and for the


    purpose, it must be able to display all necessary information. This
    information display must be approved by the authority of the
    government or government-authorized hydrographic office. This
    would mean that information display must comply with the
    performance standards of the ECDIS and the display standards of
    the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) document
     The ECDIS must enable charts to be updated in a simple and
    reliable manner.
     The charts in the ECDIS should be designed such that the
    navigational workload of the seafarer is reduced.
     The ECDIS should have the same reliability and presentation
    capabilities of paper chart.
     The ECDIS equipment should be capable of providing alerts in the
    event of equipment malfunction or improper display information.
     It should be able to distinguish between the ECDIS and the ENC,
    explain the system electronic navigational chart (SENC).
     The user should be able to select the preferred display among the
    three display presentation modes available in the ECDIS, namely,
    the standard display, base display, and all other information.
     The requirements of the display of SENC information are
    highlighted
     The requirements related to the provision and updating of chart
    information are highlighted.
     There must be scale indicator.
     There must be provisions in relation to the display of other
    navigational information such as common reference system and
    radar.
     The requirements in relation to radar information must be
    overlaid onto an ECDIS
     The display modes required in an ECDIS
     The use of standardized symbols and colors are recommended by
    the IHO. (The symbols will vary depending on the scale of the
    chart in use.) IHO S-52 standard).
     The display requirements of an ECDIS display.
     Requirements in relation to route monitoring and route planning.
     Requirements in relation to voyage recording.\requirements in
    relation to calculation accuracy (e.g. bearing and range
    measurements)
     Requirements in relation to sensor input (log, position fixing, etc.)
    .
     Requirements in relation to performance tests of malfunction
    alarms, and indications.
     Backup arrangements.
     Thepower supply (the main ECDIS to be
    connected to the main and emergency power
    sources, while the backup ECDIS must have a
    separate power source)
