ADMIRALTY NOTICES
TO MARINERS
This Admiralty Notices to Mariners Bulletin (ANMB) is published by the UK Hydrographic
Office (UKHO). The UK Maritime and Coastguard Agency accepts that both the paper and
digital forms of the ANMB comply with carriage requirement for Notices to Mariners within
Regulation 19.2.1.4 of the revised Chapter V of the Safety of Life at Sea Convention, and the
Merchant Shipping (Safety of Navigation) Regulations, both of which came into force 1 July
2002.
While every effort is made to ensure that the data provided through the Notices to Mariners
service is accurate, the user needs to be aware of the risks of corruption to data. It is important
that the user should only use the data on suitable equipment and that other applications should
not be running on the user’s machine at the same time. Users should exercise their
professional judgement in the use of data and also consult the Mariners’ Handbook (NP100)
for further details.
The user needs to be aware that there is a possibility that data could be corrupted during
transmission, or in the process of display or printing on the user’s equipment, or if converted
to other software formats, and is accordingly advised that the UKHO cannot accept
responsibility for any such change, or any modifications or unauthorised changes, made by
licensees, or other parties.

EXPLANATORY NOTES
Dating
Weekly Notices are dated for the Thursday appropriate to the week that the printed version is despatched from the
UKHO. They are available earlier from the UKHO website.
Original Information
A star adjacent to the number of a notice indicates that the notice is based on original information.
Further Guidance
The Mariner’s Handbook (NP100) gives a fuller explanation of the limitations of charts and details of the UKHO
policy for the promulgation and selection of navigationally significant information for charts. Details of chart updating
methods can be found in NP294, ‘‘How to Keep Your Admiralty Products Up-to-date’’. All users are advised to study
these publications.
Lights
When a light is affected by a notice its Light List number is quoted. The detailed amendment to the List of Lights is
given in Section V and may be published in an earlier edition than the chart-updating notice. The entire entry for each
light amended will be printed (including minor changes) and an asterisk (*) will denote which column contains an
amendment. In the case of a new light, or where a new sequence is added below the main light, an asterisk (*) will
appear under all columns. All Section V entries are intended to be cut out and pasted into the book. It is emphasised
that the List of Lights is the primary source of information on lights and that many alterations, especially those of a
temporary but operational nature, are promulgated only as corrections to the List of Lights. Light positions should
be regarded as approximate and are intended to indicate the relative positions of lights only. Charts should be
consulted for a more authoritative position. The range of a light is normally the nominal range, except when the
responsible authority quotes luminous or geographical range.
Radio Signals
When a chart-updating notice is issued for information that is also included within Admiralty List of Radio Signals, the
appropriate volume reference number is quoted, followed in parentheses by the number of the Weekly Edition
containing (in Section VI) the corresponding amendment to the service details.
The amendments in Section VI should be cut out and pasted into the appropriate volumes.
Sailing Directions
Amendments to Sailing Directions are given in Section IV. Those in force at the end of the year are reprinted in the
Annual Summary of Admiralty Notices to Mariners Part 2 (NP 247(2)). A list of amendments in force is published in
Section IV of the Weekly Edition quarterly.
For volumes of Sailing Directions maintained by Continuous Revision, amendments may be cut out and
pasted/corrected directly in to the book. Alternatively, and for the remaining volumes of Sailing Directions maintained
by Supplement, it is recommended that amendments are kept in a file with the latest list of amendments in force on
top. The list should then be consulted when using the parent book to see if any amendments, affecting the area under
consideration, are in force. It is not recommended that amendments be stuck in the parent book, or the supplement of
Sailing Directions maintained by supplement.

CAUTIONARY NOTES
Updating
Updating information is published by Weekly Notices to Mariners supplemented by radio warnings for items of
immediate importance. It should be borne in mind that they may be based on reports which cannot always be verified
before promulgation, and that it is sometimes necessary to be selective and promulgate only the more important items
to avoid overloading users; the remainder being included in revised editions of the charts and publications concerned.
Charts
Charts should be used with prudence: there are areas where the source data are old, incomplete or of poor quality. The
mariner should use the largest scale appropriate for his particular purpose; apart from being the most detailed, the
larger scales are usually corrected first. When extensive new information (such as a new hydrographic survey) is
received, some months may elapse before it can be fully incorporated in published charts. On small scale charts of
ocean areas where hydrographic information is, in many cases, still sparse, charted shoals may be in error as regards
position, least depth and extent. Undiscovered dangers may exist, particularly away from well-established routes.
Mariners must not assume that charts which are referred to WGS84 Datum, or those for which shifts to WGS84 Datum
are provided, have been surveyed to modern standards of accuracy. On some charts, owing to the age and quality of the
source information, some of the charted detail may not be positioned accurately. In such cases mariners are advised to
exercise particular caution when navigating in the vicinity of dangers, even when using an electronic positioning system
such as GPS. For further details, see The Mariner’s Handbook (NP100). This applies to both paper and digital (ARCS
and ENC) versions of charts.

ADMIRALTY AVCS AND ECDIS SERVICE
ENC Check Dataset
The UKHO supplied an ENC check dataset on CD to AVCS and ECDIS service customers along with other CD media issued in week 45/11.
Instructions for use are provided on the CD insert.
The check dataset was provided on behalf of the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO). It is designed to highlight those ECDIS
that are unable to display the latest IMO approved chart features and those that may show the anomalous display and alarm behaviour
(as described below).
Instructions on how to use the check dataset and further background information are contained in the INFO folder of the week 45 Update
CD. This information can also be accessed from the IHO website (www.iho.int). The check dataset is also being made available to mariners
by other ENC service providers.
Mariners are strongly encouraged to complete the checks and provide feedback to the IHO. The combined results of the checks will be used
to provide a report to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Maritime Safety Committee. If you have not received the check dataset
CD then please contact your ENC distributor.
Use of ECDIS - Anomalous display and alarm behaviour in some systems.
Further examples of anomalous display and alarm behaviour have been noted in some ECDIS. A revised NAVAREA 1 warning (317/10)
was issued on 30 October 2010 (see below). Some of this anomalous behaviour appears to relate to software implementation issues,
especially in early ECDIS models.
In addition to reminding mariners not to rely solely on the automated checks and alarms for dangers provided by ECDIS during route
planning and voyage monitoring, the NAVAREA warning highlights the need to maintain ECDIS software to ensure any limitations in
operational capability are resolved. It recommends that appropriate checks are made with equipment manufacturers, especially where the
ENC display is the only source of chart information available.
Examples of anomalous behaviour:
1. A very small proportion of shoal soundings, especially those marked as “reported” on paper charts, are not visible when operating in the
default base or standard display modes and do not trigger automatic grounding alarms in route checking or monitoring modes. Most ENC
producers, including the UKHO, have now amended the way in which these particular shoal soundings have been encoded in S57 to resolve
this issue.
2. Some ECDIS may not activate alarms for all land areas shown on ENCs, even where these are surrounded by a shoal depth contour.
Whilst land areas such as islands are generally clearly identifiable on ECDIS, in some display configurations small islands can be difficult to
see as they may be obscured by other detail such as contour labels. This is most likely to be a problem where only very small scale
(usage band 1 and 2) ENCs are available. There are many oceanic areas for which the largest scale chart (both paper and ENC) issued is
1:3.5 million.
3. It has been noted that on some ECDIS some underwater obstruction hazards only display in ‘full / other’ display mode rather than in
default standard mode as might be expected.
The observed anomalies reinforce the need for the continued application of established navigation principles and skills including the
need to avoid over-reliance on a single system. Mariners should always undertake careful visual inspection of the entire planned
route using the ‘other / all’ display mode to confirm that it, and any deviations from it, is clear of dangers.
NAVAREA I – 317/10
290525Z OCT 10
As previously notified by NAVAREA warning, mariners using ECDIS are reminded not to rely solely on automated voyage planning and
monitoring checks and alarms. Some ECDIS appear only to undertake route check functions on larger scale ENCs and therefore alarms
might not activate. This may not be clearly indicated on the ECDIS display. Mariners should always undertake careful visual inspection of
the entire planned route using the ‘other / all’ display mode to confirm that it, and any deviations from it, is clear of dangers.
Recent preliminary investigation indicates that some ECDIS may not display certain combinations of chart features and attributes correctly
and on rare occasions may fail to display a navigationally significant feature. This appears to be caused by anomalous behaviour in some
ECDIS software, especially early versions. The existence of such anomalies highlights the importance of maintaining ECDIS software to
ensure that operational capability and reliability are maintained. It is recommended that appropriate checks are made with the equipment
manufacturer. This is of particular importance where ECDIS is the only source of chart information available to the mariner
The International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) is investigating these matters in consultation with ECDIS equipment manufacturers.
Further information will be made available through Notices to Mariners and within the UK element of the README.TXT file included on
ENC service media.

2010 series:
317 As previously notified by NAVAREA warning, mariners using ECDIS are reminded not to rely solely on automated
voyage planning and monitoring checks and alarms. Some ECDIS appear only to undertake route check functions on
larger scale ENCs and therefore alarms might not activate. This may not be clearly indicated on the ECDIS display.
Mariners should always undertake careful visual inspection of the entire planned route using the ‘other / all’ display
mode to confirm that it, and any deviations from it, is clear of dangers.
Recent preliminary investigation indicates that some ECDIS may not display certain combinations of chart features and
attributes correctly and on rare occasions may fail to display a navigationally significant feature. This appears to be
caused by anomalous behaviour in some ECDIS software, especially early versions. The existence of such anomalies
highlights the importance of maintaining ECDIS software to ensure that operational capability and reliability are
maintained. It is recommended that appropriate checks are made with the equipment manufacturer. This is of particular
importance where ECDIS is the only source of chart information available to the mariner.
The International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) is investigating these matters in consultation with ECDIS
equipment manufacturers. Further information will be made available through Notices to Mariners and within the UK
element of the README.TXT file included on ENC service media.

HYDROGRAPHIC NOTE H.102
(ver 4.2 Nov 10)
1. Mariners are requested to notify the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office (UKHO) (by
mail: SDRA, UKHO, Admiralty Way, Taunton, Somerset, TAI 2DN, United Kingdom or
by email: hdcfiles@ukho.gov.uk) when new or suspected dangers to navigation are
discovered, changes observed in aids to navigation, or corrections to publications are
seen to be necessary. Mariners can also report any ENC display issues experienced.
The Mariner's Handbook (NP100) Chapter 4 gives general instructions. The
provisions of international and national laws should be complied with when forwarding
such reports.
2. This form and its instructions have been designed to help both the sender and the
recipient. It should be used, or followed closely, whenever appropriate. Copies of
this Form may be obtained gratis from the UKHO at the above address, or from
Admiralty Chart Agents (see Annual Notice to Mariners No. 2). This form is also
available on the web: www.ukho.gov.uk/msi
4. Paper Charts: A cutting from the largest scale chart is the best medium for
forwarding details, the alterations and additions being shown thereon in red. When
requested, a new copy will be sent in replacement of a chart that has been used to
forward information, or when extensive observations have involved defacement of the
observer's chart. If it is preferred to show the amendments on a tracing of the largest
scale chart (rather than on the chart itself) these should be in red as above, but
adequate details from the chart must be traced in black ink to enable the
amendments to be fitted correctly.
ENCs: A screen shot of the largest scale usage band ENC with the alterations and
additions being shown thereon in red. If it is to report an issue with the display of an
ENC, a screen shot of the affected cell should be sent along with details of the ECDIS
make and version in use at the time.
6. For modern sets that use electronic ‘range gating’, care should be taken that
the correct range scale and appropriate gate width are in use. Older electro-
mechanical echo sounders frequently record signals from echoes received back after
one or more rotations of the stylus have been completed. Thus with a set whose
maximum range is 500m, an echo recorded at 50m may be from depths of 50m,
550m or even 1050m. Soundings recorded beyond the set's nominal range can
usually be recognised by the following:
(a) the trace being weaker than normal for the depth recorded;
(b) the trace passing through the transmission line;
(c) the feathery nature of the trace.
As a check that apparently shoal soundings are not due to echoes received beyond
the set's nominal range, soundings should be continued until reasonable agreement
with charted soundings is reached. However, soundings received after one or more
rotations of the stylus can still be useful and should be submitted if they show
significant differences from charted depths.
7. Reports which cannot be confirmed or are lacking in certain details should not
be withheld. Shortcomings should be stressed and any firm expectation of being
able to check the information on a succeeding voyage should be mentioned.
8. Reports of shoal soundings, uncharted dangers and aids to navigation out of order
should, at the mariner's discretion, also be made by radio to the nearest coast radio
station. The draught of modern tankers is such that any uncharted depth under
30 metres or 15 fathoms may be of sufficient importance to justify a radio message.
10. Reports on ocean currents should be made in accordance with The Mariner's
Handbook (NP100) Chapter 4.
Note. - An acknowledgement or receipt will be sent and the information then used to the best
advantage which may mean immediate action or inclusion in a revision in due course; for
these purposes, the UKHO may make reproductions of any material supplied. When a
Notice to Mariners is issued, the sender's ship or name is quoted as authority unless (as
sometimes happens) the information is also received from other authorities or the sender
states that they do not want to be named by using the appropriate tick box on the form. An
explanation of the use made of contributions from all parts of the world would be too great a
task and a further communication should only be expected when the information is of
outstanding value or has unusual features.

NOTES:
1. This form is designed to assist in the reporting of any observed changes to Port Information
details and should be submitted as an accompaniment to Form H.102 (full instructions for the
rendering of data are on Form H.102 - email: hdcfiles@ukho.gov.uk). In addition, the Mariner's
Handbook (NP100) Chapter 8 gives general instructions. If practicable the Mariner should also
contact the originating Hydrographic Office when navigating on IMO Approved non-UKHO ENCs.
The provisions of international and national laws should be complied with when forwarding such
reports.
2. Form H.I02A lists the information required for Admiralty Sailing Directions and has been
designed to help both sender and recipient, the sections should be used as an aide-mémoire,
being used or followed closely, whenever appropriate. Where there is insufficient space on the
form an additional sheet should be used.
3. Reports which cannot be confirmed or are lacking in certain details should not be
withheld. Shortcomings should be stressed and any firm expectation of being able to check the
information on a succeeding voyage should be mentioned.
