MARINER’S OBLIGATION AND A CHART MAKER’S PLEA
Observing changes at sea proactively and reporting them promptly to the concerned charting agency, is an
obligation that all mariners owe to the entire maritime community towards SOLAS. Mariners are requested to notify the
Chief Hydrographer to the Government of India at the above mentioned address/fax number/ E mail address immediately
on discovering new or suspected dangers to navigation, changes/defects pertaining to navigational aids, and shortcomings
in Indian charts/publications. The Hydrographic Note [Form IH – 102] is a convenient form to notify such changes.
Specimen form is attached at Section IX with this notice. Also visit our website for downloading and filling up instructions
for HydrographicNote.
Chief Hydrographer
to the Government of India
WARNING AGAINST USE OF COUNTERFEIT PRODUCTS
All mariners are cautioned against the use of counterfeit copies of IN Charts and
publications. Navigational Charts produced after 31 Oct 14 carry NHO crest as
watermark on the reverse with backslip. Chart Agent’s stamp is mandatory on all
Charts.
Counterfeit products may have errors resulting in potential risks. The same are
not approved by inspecting agencies and do not satisfy the carriage requirements
of SOLAS chapter V.
Mariners are strongly advised not to use or encourage the use of counterfeit
charts and publications. Failure to comply with the warning may invite legal
action.
III
EXPLANATORY NOTES
Corrections to Charts and Publications. Section I comprises List of Charts affected by the notices contained in this
edition. Whereas sections II and III contain information for correcting the charts and publications. Mariners should insist
on corrected charts from their chartdistributors/agents.
(a) Geographical positions given are in the horizontal datum of the current edition of the chart, unless
otherwise stated.
(b) Bearings aretrue, reckoned clockwise from000°to 359°. Bearingsto lights are from seaward.
(c) Symbols referred to,are those shown on the chart5020 (INT 1).
(d) Alterations to depth contours, deletion of depths to make way for new detail, etc; are not normally
mentioned,unless they have some navigational significance.
(e) Blocks andnotes, if any, accompanying the Notices in Sections II and III are placed after SectionIX.
Temporary and Preliminary Notices. These are indicated by (T) and (P) respectively after the Notice number and
are placedinSection III.Sl Nos. of those in forcearepublished quarterly on 01Jan, 01 Apr, 01 Jul and 01 Oct, and their
textispublished in Annual Edition of Indian Notices to Mariners. They should be inserted in pencil, by the user, on receipt.
Source of Information. A star preceding the number of a Notice indicates that the notice is promulgated by INHO
based on original informationreceived.
Sailing Directions. Corrections for the Sailing Directions(Pilots)are given in Section VI.
Lights. Corrections toIndianList ofLightsaregiven in Section VII, where affected Light List number is quoted.
(a) These corrections should be incorporated as per instructions given on pageXIof theList of Lights.
(b) Such correction notices tolist oflightsmay be published in either an earlier or a later Edition of N to M
than the Edition containing the Notice to the chart correction.
(c) The range of a light given is its nominal range. Its geographicalrange is given in parenthesis onlyif it isless
than the nominal range.
(d) A star indicates thatthecorresponding fieldisto be amendedandallstars indicate that new lightisto be
inserted.
Radio Signals. The corrections in Section VIII should be cut and pasted in the appropriate volume of the List of Radio
Signals.
Radio Navigational Warnings.
(a) These are broadcast as serially numbered NAVAREA warnings by the concerned NAVAREA coordinator
through GMDSS and Area Radio Broadcasts.
(b) They contain important information affecting navigational safety, which cannot await the publication of the
next edition of N to M.
(c) It should be borne in mind that they may be based on reports which cannot always be verified before
promulgation.
(d) It is therefore necessary to be selective, and promulgate onlythe moreimportant warnings to avoid over
loading users; the less important information is included in the forthcoming edition of N to M or the
Chart/publication concerned.
IV
Laws and Regulations. While in the interest of the safety of shipping, the Hydrographic Office makes everyendeavor
to include in its publications details of the laws and regulations of all countries pertaining to navigation, it must be clearly
understood:-
(a) That no liability whatsoever can be accepted for failure to publish details of any particular law or regulation
and
(b) That publication of details of a law or regulation is solely for the safety and convenience of shipping and
implies no recognition of the International validity of the law or regulation.
Correction of Charts and Publications by theUsers. Notices to Mariners contain important information concerning
safety of navigation at sea, hence, they should be used to keep the specifiedcharts and publicationsup-to-date.
Reliance on Charts and Associated Publications. While every effort is made by the Hydrographic Office to ensure
the accuracy of the information on Charts and Publications before they are published, it should be appreciated that it may
not always be complete and up-to-date. The mariner must be the final judge for the reliance he can place on the infor-
mation available, bearing in mind his particular circumstances, local pilotage guidance and judicious use of available
navigational aids.
Use of Global Positioning System (WGS 84) positions.
(a) The positions of hydrographic objects shown on some of the Indian charts and publications are in Everest
datum.However, the positionsof vessels obtained from Global Positioning System (GPS) are on WorldGeodetic
System 1984 datum. There will always exist a difference in the position values obtained by visual fixing(Everest
Datum) and GPS position(WGS 84 datum).
(b) Wherever these differences have been ascertained, their average values are published as a Cautionary
Note on the chart concerned, as shiftsin Latitude and Longitude. Whilst plotting GPS positions on charts, the shift
values asgiven on the chart must be applied, before making any assessment of the navigational situation vis-à-vis
the othercharted information.
(c) These datum shift values are not uniform, particularly in areas off AndamanandNicobar andLakshadweep
Islands, as these places are not linked to mainlandnetwork(Everestdatum). Mariners areadvised to use alternate
source of position information such as Visual or Radar, particularly when closing the shore or navigating in the
vicinity of dangers.
Source Data on Charts. All Indian charts contain specific information on their source of hydrographic data. In areas
where the source data is very old, incomplete and less reliable, the mariner must use such charts with prudence. Mariner
should always use thelargest scale chartsavailable for the area. Apart from being the most detailed, the larger scale charts
are usually corrected first. Hydrographic information may be sparse on small scale charts. On such charts, a charted shoal
may be in error as regards position, least depth and extent. Uncharted dangers may also exist, particularly in areas away
from well-established routes. Mariners must exercise due caution.
Further Guidance. The Mariner’s Hand Book (NP 100) gives full explanation on the use of charts and the type of
information contained on charts. In their own interest, all users of charts should refer to it.
