Data Standards and Data Sharing The Foundation for Inland Waterways E-Navigation Success (USA) Wednesday September 14, 2011 Doug McDonald Navigation Data Center U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
Establish a basis for collaboration • Standards for information transfer • Improving data through information sharing • Develop flexible data sets for e-Nav purposes • Strategic, Tactical, Operational • Action, Informed Decision Making Fairway to Successful E-Navigation
Adopting Common Nomenclature • Agreement on standard definitions • Accepting standard definitions • Using standard definitions • Eliminates communication barrier • Fosters collaboration and partnerships • Mapping and translating common assets among entities is NOT: • adopting common nomenclature. • true collaboration Establishing a Basis for CollaborationStandard Identifiers and Codes for Messages
Standard Location Codes for Dock Facilities • Standard River Names and Mile Points • Standard Vessel Codes • Standard Commodity Codes Federal-Industry Logistics Standardization (FILS) A joint collaboration between Industry & Governmental Agencies to adopt a uniform nomenclature for US Navigational Points of Interest, Vessels, and Commodities in order to improve accuracy and efficiency when sharing common information. Guiding principles • Accepted by Industry • Accepted by Federal Agencies • Usable in multiple transmission formats • Adhere to international standards
