CARIS HOM AML 2.0 SP1
Release: November 2004
Service Pack 1: August 2005; contains over 60 fixes
and enhancements
Highlights:
• Support for v1.0 and v2.0 of AML product
specifications
• Tool to convert AML v1.0 data sets to v2.0
• Object Import Utility now supports ESRI SHP files as
a data source and allows coordinate transformations
to be done on input data
CARIS HOM AML 2.0 SP1
AML v1.0 and v2.0 support
Import, edit, create and update/maintain v1.0 and v2.0
AML data
• Select and switch between AML product profiles at
any time
• All operations including QC/QA and product creation
will be based on the active product profile
Select an AML product
profile (e.g. CLB 2.0)
CARIS HOM AML 2.0 SP1
Intelligent AML v1.0 to v2.0 conversion
Tool to easily convert AML v1.0 data sets to v2.0
• Conversion rules are stored in an editable lookup
table in XML format
• Tool can be run on one or more data sets (batch
mode)
• All modifications performed (e.g. ‘Replace object’) are
written to a log file for review
CARIS HOM AML 2.0 SP1
Enhanced Object Import Utility
Import geometry (point, line, area) and attribution from
ESRI SHP files
Transform coordinates in input data ‘on-the-fly’ during
import
• Users specify the coordinate system for the input
data set. Doing so ensures coordinates being
imported are correctly transformed.
• List of available coordinate systems is stored in an
editable ASCII file; new coordinate systems can be
defined at any time.
CARIS HPD
What is HPD?
• CARIS HPD offers a new and innovative solution to
managing digital hydrographic, and other, data in an
efficient and integrated multi-user, seamless, databasedriven environment (Oracle)
• CARIS HPD allows for a single copy of source data
features to be maintained, from which multiple product
types (e.g. S-57 ENC, paper chart, AML) can be derived
and managed, at many different scale ranges
No suites of separate data files to manage.
CARIS HPD
HPD Data Model Advantages
HPD has adopted state of the art data models (S-57, VPF,
OGC). Some of the benefits:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Allows a feature to have multiple representations
Shared geometry
Feature generalization relationships
Individual object lineage (history and tracking)
Data certification and integrity
Oracle integrity constraints, referential integrity
and data security are leveraged by HPD
CARIS HPD and AML
Support for AML is being implemented in CARIS HPD
• CARIS HPD Source Editor – Compile and manage source data
• New CARIS HPD AML Editor – Create AML products from source
data
