Track: Ocean and Maritime
Authors: Charlotte Bjerregaard

The Danish Hydrographic Office has defined an ambitious plan to produce nautical paper charts and electronic navigational charts (ENCs) covering the waters along the West coast of Greenland. This presentation describes lessons learned on the transition from a traditional cell and chart based production to a full scale enterprise solution. The advantages of working in a seamless database environment and using the dedicated tools for e.g. quality control and chart automation will be presented.
