Authors: Simon Hampshire, Ian Peart

The internet and web services have encouraged an expectation that all information is available, in the format desired, and as up-to-date as possible. Establishing a GIS platform that delivers situational awareness across variety of infrastructures and to a multitude of clients is key to delivering against these expectations. This paper discusses the approach that the UKHO have taken to developing a proof of concept that delivers new-found capability for the shore-based, afloat and deployed user.
