7、riting from the International Maritime Opniration. Preface SOLAS, chapter IV, Regulation 12 states, in part, that ”Every ship, while at sea, shall maintain a radio watch for broadcasts of maritime safety information on the appropriate frequency or frequencies on which such information is broadcast f

8、or the area in which the ship is navigating.” At the request of the Sub-Committee on Radiocommunications, the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) produced this joint document on the drafting of maritime safety information broadcasts, which wa

9、s circulated to IHO Member States with IHB CL 10/1994 and approved by the Sub-Committee on Radiocommunications and Search and Rescue, at its first session (February 1996) and further endorsed by the Maritime Safety Committee at its 66th session (May/June 1996). The publication contains sections from

10、 the IMO Assembly resolution A.706(17), “World-Wide Navigational Warning Service”, as amended, and relevant sections of the WMO Publication ”Manual on Marine Meteorological Services”. Although this is an IMO publication, it is intended that the responsible organizations will maintain their respectiv

11、e sections of this joint IMO/IHO/ WMO document. . 111 Contents General information . 1 2 Promulgation of maritime safety information . the World-Wide Navigational Warning Service .

12、n . Procedure for amending the Joint IMO/IHO/WMO Manual on MSI 27 33 34 V 1 - GENERAL INFORMATION This book provides a practical guide for anyone who is concerned with drafting radio navigational warnings or with the issuance of meteorological forecasts and warnings for the high seas (see note 1) un

13、der the GMDSS. It is assumed throughout that the navigational warnings are being issued under the auspices of the IHO/IMO World-Wide Navigational Warning Service (WWNWS) and that the meteorological forecasts and warnings are being issued under the patronage of the WMO, and in accordance with the req

14、uirements of IMO resolution A.706(17), as amended. The WWNWS includes two major international radio warning services as components: namely, NAVAREA warnings and coastal warnings. It is particularly intended to provide the best form of words for use in all types of navigational warnings and meteorolo

15、gical forecasts and warnings in the English language (See notes 2 and 3). Note has been taken of the IMO Standard Marine Communication Phrases, where appropriate. This document cannot provide specimen texts for every type of event which may occur. However, the principles illustrated herein may be ap

16、plied in general to drafting messages for every kind of navigational warning and covering all types of hazards and for the issuance of meteorological forecasts and warnings for the high seas under the GMDSS. Notes: 1 Meteorological Warnings and forecasts for the High Seas is the term used by the Wor

17、ld Meteorological Organization (WMO) to refer to meteorological information for all sea areas. 2 See WWNWS Guidance Document, section 5.3 (IHO/IMO Special Publication s-53). 3 See WMO Publication Manual on Marine Meteorological Forecasu and Warnings for the High Seas under the Global Maritime Distre

19、ally co- ordinated network of radio broadcasts containing information which is necessary for safe navigation, received on all ships by equipment which automatically monitors the appropriate frequencies and prints out in simple English only that information which is relevant to the ship. This concept

20、 is illustrated in figure 1. EGC SafetyNET RECEIVING FACILITY Figure 1 - International Maritime Safety Information Service 2.1.2 Maritime safety information is of vital concern to all vessels. It is therefore essential that common standards are applied to the collection, editing and dissemination of

21、 this information. Only by doing so will mariners be assured of receiving the information they need, in a form which they understand, at the earliest possible time. 2.1.3 The purpose of IMO resolution A.705(17) “Promulgation of Maritime Safety information” is to set out the organization, standards a

22、nd methods which should be used for the promulgation and reception of maritime safety information. 2 2 - Promulgation of maritime safety information 2.2 Definitions 2.2.1 For the purposes of this publication, the following definitions apply: -1 Maritime safety information - navigational and meteorol

23、ogical warnings, meteorological forecasts and other urgent safety- related messages. Maritime Safety Information Service - the co-ordinated service of navigational and meteorological warnings, meteorological fore- casts and safety-related messages. .3 World-Wide Navigational Warning Service (WWNWS)

24、- the internationally Co-ordinated service for the promulgation of navigational warnings as set out in IMO resolution A.706(17), as amended. Meteorological information - the marine meteorological warning and forecast information described in regulation V/5 of the i974 SOLAS Convention, as amended. N

25、AVAREA/METAREA - a geographical sea area, as shown in figure 2, established for the purpose of Co-ordinating the transmission of radio navigational and meteorological warnings. Where appro- priate, the term NAVAREA/METAREA followed by an identifying roman numeral, may be used as a short title. The d

26、elimitation of such areas is not related to and should not prejudice the delimitation of any boundaries between States. Distress alert means the initial shore-to-ship distress message broadcast in accordance with the Radio Regulations. NAVTEX means the system for the broadcast and automatic receptio

27、n of maritime safety information by means of narrow- band direct-printing telegraphy. International NAVTEX Service means the Co-ordinated broadcast and automatic reception on frequency 518 kHz of maritime safety information by means of narrow-band direct-printing telegraphy using the English languag

28、e, as set out in the NAVTEX Manual (IMO publication 951), as amended. .9 National NAVTEX Service means the broadcast and automatic reception of maritime safety information by means of narrow- band direct-printing telegraphy using frequencies and languages as decided by the Administrations concerned.

29、 .i0 International SafetyNETService means the area-addressable global broadcast system, provided by Inmarsat, through the geo- stationary maritime communication satellite network for promul- gation of maritime safety information, as set out in the International SafetyNET Manual (IMO publication 908)

30、, as amended. .ll Coast Earth Station (CES) means a fixed terrestrial radio facility acting as a gateway between terrestrial networks and the Inmarsat satellites in the maritime mobile-satellite service. .2 .4 .5 .6 .7 .8 3 MSI Manual ?

31、 - Promulgation of maritime safety information 2.3 Broadcast services 2.3.1 Two systems are used for broadcasting maritime safety information. They are provided specifically to serve the requirements of chapter V of the 1974 SOLAS Convention, as amended, in the areas covered by these systems, as fol

32、lows: the International NAVTEX Service transmissions in coastal regions; and the International SafetyNET Service transmissions which cover all the waters of the globe, except for polar regions. .1 .2 2.3.2 information should be provided for unique and precisely defined sea areas, each being served o

33、nly by the most appropriate of the above systems. Although there will be some duplication to allow a vessel to change from one system to another, the majority of messages will be broadcast on one system. 2.3.3 NAVTEX transmission should be made in accordance with the standards and procedures set out

34、 in the NAVTEX Manual. These transmissions are subject to approval by the Maritime Safety Committee. The means of obtaining this approval is described in the NAVTEX Manual. 2.3.4 International SafetyNET Service transmissions should be made in accordance with the standards and procedures set out in t

35、he International Sa fetyNET Manual. 2.3.5 Member Governments may also choose to provide supplementary equivalent broadcasts of maritime safety information in other modes using other frequencies. These may include national NAVTEX services on 4,209.5 kHz and 490 kHz and HF/NBDP broadcasts. 2.3.6 in th

36、e event of failure of normal transmission facilities, an alternative means of transmission should be utilised. A NAVAREA Warning and a Coastal Warning, if possible, should be issued detailing the failure, its duration and, if known, the alternative route for the dissemination of MSI. 2.4 Reception f

37、acilities 2.4.1 Ships are required to be capable of receiving maritime safety information broadcasts for the area in which they operate. This requirement is set out in chapter IV of the 1974 SOLAS Convention, as amended. 2.4.2 The International SafetyNET Service receiving facility should conform to

38、Part A of the inmarsat Design and Installation Guidelines for EGC SafetyNET Equipment and should meet the performance standards adopted by the Organization by resolution A.664(16). 2.4.3 The NAVTEX receiver should operate in accordance with the technical specifications set out in Recommendation ITU-

39、R M.540-2, and should meet the performance standards adopted by the Organization by resolution MSC.148(77). 5 MSI Manual 2.5 Provision of information 2.5.1 Navigational warnings should be provided in accordance with the standards, organization and procedures of the WWNWS under the functional guideli

40、nes of the IHO through its Commission on Promulgation of Radio Navigational Warnings. 2.5.2 Meteorological information should be provided in accordance with the technical regulations and recommendations of the WMO. 2.5.3 Distress alert notifications should be provided by the various authorities resp

41、onsible for co-ordinating maritime search and rescue operations in accordance with the standards and procedures established by the Organization. 2.6 Co-ordination procedures 2.6.1 In order to make the best use of automated reception facilities and to ensure that the mariner receives at least the min

42、imum information necessary for safe navigation, careful Co-ordination is required. 2.6.2 In general, this requirement for co-operation and Co-ordination will be met by the standard operational procedures of IHO, WMO, ITU and Inmarsat. 2.6.3 Cases of difficulty should be referred, in the first instan

43、ce, to the most appropriate parent body. 2.6.4 Member States wishing to provide maritime safety information services should nominate a national Co-ordinator for each type of information concerned, informing the Organization of such nominations as they are made. The Organization will maintain and, th

44、rough the Maritime Safety committee, publish a list of the nominated co-ordinators. 2.6.5 The establishment of transmissions in the International NAVTEX Service is Co-ordinated by the Maritime Safety Committee. Detailed guidance on the provision of NAVTEX services is contained in the NAVTEX Manual.

45、2.6.6 The use of satellite maritime information services is Co-ordinated by the Maritime Safety Committee. 2.6.7 The designation of service areas is an important part of the co- ordination process since it is intended that a vessel should be able to obtain all the information relevant to a given are

46、a from a single source. Information co-ordinators should, therefore, design their broadcasts to suit a particular service area. The Maritime Safety Committee will designate service areas for the International SafetyNET Service and the International NAVTEX Service. In doing so, the Committee will tak

47、e full account of the character and volume of information and the pattern of maritime traffic in the region and the advice of IHO and WMO. 6 3 - Radio navigational warnings 3 - RADIO NAVIGATIONAL WARNINGS FOR THE WORLD-WIDE NAVIGATIONAL WARNING SERVICE 3.1 General considerations 3.1.1 Radio navigati

48、onal warnings are essentially HAZARD WARNINGS. In accordance with the WWNWS Guidance Document, section 4.2.1.3 (IHO/ IMO Special Publication S-53), the following subject areas are considered suitable for transmission as NAVAREA warnings. This list is not exhaustive and should be regarded only as a g

49、uideline. Furthermore, it presupposes that sufficiently precise information about the item has not previously been disseminated in Notices to Mariners, such as: .1 .2 .3 .4 .5 .6 .7 .8 .9 .10 .ll .12 casualties to lights, fog signals and buoys affecting main shipping lanes; the presence of dangerous wrecks in or near main shipping lanes and, if relevant, their marking; establishment of major new aids to navigation or significant changes to existing ones when such establishment or change might be misleading to shipping; the presence of larg
