If the electronic chart is part of an ECDIS, it must display the minimum data required by IMO/IHO. Which is NOT required to be displayed?

🔍 Key Concepts

• ECDIS (Electronic Chart Display and Information System) performance standards in IMO SOLAS and IEC/IMO references • The definition of minimum chart content for safe navigation (what you must always see) • Difference between static chart information (always on the chart) and dynamic / calculated information (comes from other sources or overlays)

💭 Think About

• Think about which items are essential fixed elements of a nautical chart that you must always be able to see for safe navigation. • Consider which choice represents information that may come from separate tidal/current publications or predictions, not necessarily as part of the base chart data. • Ask yourself: which three items are clearly part of traditional paper chart content, and which one is more of an environmental or time‑varying factor?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options clearly belong to standard paper chart content (look at an official paper chart and note what is printed there permanently). • Ask: which of these is time‑dependent or predicted rather than a fixed feature on the seabed or coastline? • Verify which items IMO/IHO treat as mandatory chart features versus information that can be provided by separate publications or overlays.
