INTRODUCTION

The Symbols and Abbreviations used in Thai nautical charts were initially published in 1t)65 by
the Hydrographic Depaltment. The main purpose was to make clear and understandable to the navi-
gators in the details of Symbols and Abbreviations. The first, second and the third compilations were
printed in sheet named chart No.(C) with which reference to the resolutions of International Hydro-
graphic Organization (IHO) from l!}65 to 1978 respectively.
On account of the amendments and the new introduction of Symbols and Abbreviations in the
1985 IHO Resolutions. The Hydrographic Department realized that the information existing in chart
No.(C) should had been updated. Thus, for the forth revision, chart No.(C) were published in a book-
let contained the following information:-
l. Titles, Symbols and Abbreviations followed the IHO Resolutions Standard Form and numbering.
2. Upright figures indicate those symbols and abbreviations which were resolved by the IHO
conference or have not been resolved yet but are generally adopted.
3. Italic figures indicate those symbols and abbreviations developed for certain depictions which
are different from IHO Resolutions.
Figures in parentheses indicate additional information in Standard form of IHO Resolutions.
Nautical charts are constructed on mercator projection and are computed on middle latitude of
charts-series, unless otherwise stated on charts.
6. I-ongitude are originated from Greenwich meridian.
7. Soundings are,shown in Metres as stated on the chart title.
8. Chart datum are generally the plane of lowest low water, unless otherwise stated on the chart
title.
9. Underlined figures shown on rocks, banks and areas over water express heights in metres above
chart datum.
10. Elevations are shown in metres above mean sea level except those indicated by underlined
figures ab mentioned above.
To indicate elevations of islets, cultures (p.g. chimneys), or elevations outside of the object's
positions figures in parentheses are used.
