  5. IHO DEFINITION is that branch of applied sciences which deals with the measurement and description of the features of the seas and coastal areas for the primary purpose of navigation and all other marine purposes and activities, including –inter alia- offshore activities, research, protection of the environment, and prediction services.

  20. MARITIME DELIMITATION The baselines (normal or straight) and the outer limit lines of the TS, EEZ, CS and the lines of their delimitation …shall be shown on CHARTS of an adequate scale for ascertaining their position. The coastal State shall give due publicity to such charts or lists of geographical co-ordinates. MACHC Technical Workshop, Cartagena, Colombia, 30 May 2005

  34. STRATEGIC ANALYSIS S.O.S.T. MACHC Technical Workshop, Cartagena, Colombia, 30 May 2005

  35. CONCLUSIONS 1) All Maritime States should be aware of the social- economic benefits of having a specialized governmental agency to handle hydro-cartographic and safe to navigation matters. One authority is needed to coordinate this national effort. The establishment of a National Hydrographic Committee should be strongly considered as a matter of high priority. 2) National hydro-cartographic and safe to navigation planning and programming should be worked out with the participation of all end users of these products. The participation of the academia as well as the private sector is recommended. MACHC Technical Workshop, Cartagena, Colombia, 30 May 2005

  36. CONCLUSIONS 3) Those Maritime States with a certain degree of hydro- cartographic and safe to navigation capabilities, should consider running a S.O.S.T. analysis to identify ways to improve present situation. Those Maritime States without a national structure should consider developing one with the advise of both, the IHO and IMO. 4) The development of hydrographic surveying and nautical charting capability needs to follow a systematic approach. This workshop is oriented to present relevant phases making especial emphasis on Phase One, “COLLECTION AND CIRCULATION OF NAUTICAL INFORMATION”.
