International Hydrographic Organization
S-99 - Structure, Organisation and
Management of the S-100 Geospatial
Information Registry
Introduction
• Paper HSSC2-05.1B rev 1

includes comments from IEHG
• Action HSSC1-13



reduced administration
simpler management
more open
Review:
Why S-100 ?
• Broad, contemporary geospatial framework standard


Not specific to ECDIS or charting
Enables use of hydro data in other products and services
• Will replace S-57 over time
• Based on ISO 19100 series of geographic standards

interoperable with other ISO data profiles
• Standards are never “frozen”
What is S-100 ?
a framework standard – an implementation guide
describes components for
• a registry for managing

- feature concept dictionaries
feature portrayal elements
metadata elements
producer codes
product specifications
registry
-
the database that contains the essentials required to establish
and define the content element of product specifications
feature
-
the codification that describes a real-world entity
-
a buoy, a sounding, a building, …
a cargo, a legal regulation, a pilot service, a marine service,
a ship report, (voyage plan, position, etc), …
product specification
-
the application schema for a standardised data input/output
-
content, arrangement, portrayal, encoding, etc …..
= the “plans” , the “recipe”, the “data product template”
examples: S-101 - ENC prod spec
Organizational
Guidelines and
Principles
S-100
… to create a “store”
Registry
… to build things
Product
Specifications
S-100 : based on ISO 19100 series
No end-date

register entries stay in register, even after supersession
or retirement
“valid”
latest version (use for new prod specs)
“superseded”
previous version/s (referenced by existing prod specs)
“retired”
no longer recommended for use

no requirement to change a product specification
every time an entry is revised in a register
Prod. Spec. owners remain in control !
Domains


register entries organised under “domains”
-
so far: hydrography, nautical publications, inland ENCs, sea ice,
-
[Aus AtoN], [Port ENC], [IALA], …..
registry open to extension and use by other
Submitting Organizations and for new domains (1 Jan 11 ?)
• Submitting Organizations propose then oversee their domain
data - via the unified executive control body
• all features tagged with unique domain ID

registry operating rules in IHO S-99
S-100 GI Registry
http://195.217.61.120/iho_registry/
Public access: 1 January 2011 ?
Using the S-100 GI Registry

Is what you want already in the registry?
• Then use it !

Not in the registry ?
• Then, find or become a submitting organization and :
 propose a revision
 propose something new
 propose to establish a new domain

Submission and Approval Processes
Submission and Approval Processes

Register Manager
• checks for correctness, duplicates, ……

Domain Control Body
• reviews proposals
• 30 days to raise an objection

Register Manager
• After 30 days, adds submission to register with status “active”
Submitting Organisations

Recognized bodies or stakeholder groups

Purposely open access
• on-line registration
• no requirement for formal approval
• can be de-registered by ECB or HSSC
Control Bodies

Domain Control Bodies
• 1 representative per IHO domain
• 1 representative per non-IHO domain
• 1 IHB representative

Reviews submissions to relevant register
Control Bodies

Executive Control Body
• relevant IHO WG chairs
• 1 representative per non-IHO domain
• 1 IHB representative

monitor and advise register manager

arbitrate over disputes

monitor list of Submitting Organizations
S-62 – ENC Producer Codes

may not be required in the future

no action required at this stage

better reflect relationship with recognised
international organisations
Summary
S-99 provides

business rules for the operation of the S-100 GI Registry

simplified management and administrative structure

encourages widest possible use of hydrographic data
Conclusion
HSSC-2 requested to:

endorse S-99

recommend that S-99 be adopted as a new IHO publication
