22. Evolution of Romanian ENC`s in 2010 About the Romanian ENC`s • In January to April 2010 was completed the whole Romanian sector with sector between rkm 375 – rkm 297. In July to September 2010, ENC maps was completed for the sector between rkm 297 to Black Sea. In the same period the entire map was made for the Danube - Black Sea channal and for the entire secondary channel between Poarta Alba to Midia Navodari - Black Sea. Throughout the year 2010 was made monthly updates about the coastal signaling in sector between Chiciu, rkm 375 - Timok, rkm 845

23. Evolution of Romanian ENC`s in 2010 About ENC software and trainings In the second quarter, in June the entire software package from SevenCs Germany (ENC Designer, ENC Analyzer, ENC Optimizer, ENC Referencer, ENC Manager) was updated and was made training session in Romania. Now we have opportunity to update the ENC`s form version 1.02 to version 2.1 for entire Romanian sector of Danube.
