    IMO Resolution A

    IMO Resolution A.817 (19) establishes requirements for ECDIS systems on vessels. It states that a single ECDIS can be used for navigation but requires backup by paper charts or a secondary ECDIS. An ECDIS must be connected to position fixing, gyro, and log systems in a way that prevents single point failures. It must also have an uninterruptible power supply to handle brief blackouts without rebooting.

    IMO Resolution A.

    817 (19)

    The carriage requirement means an ECDIS should be fitted. This does not automatically enable the vessel to sail paperless as the requirement is for a single ECDIS. A single ECDIS can be used for navigation but it requires a backup by paper charts or a secondary ECDIS. Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS) means a navigation information system which, with adequate back up arrangements, can be accepted as complying with the up to date chart required by regulation V/19 and V/27 of the 1974 Safety of Lives at Sea (SOLAS) Convention. An ECDIS system must at least be connected to an electronic position fixing system (EPFS), a gyro and a log. The connection must be made in such a way and by a certified engineer to ensure that a single fault error cannot influence the system, which means the connection must be made directly to the sensor. As an ECDIS is a computer based system it must be protected by a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) capable of handling a 45 second blackout during a switch from the vessels main to backup power source without rebooting.

    IMO SOLAS V/19

    2.1 All ships irrespective of size shall have: 2.1.4 Nautical charts and nautical publications to plan and display the ships route for the intended voyage and to plot and monitor positions throughout the voyage; an Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS) may be accepted as meeting the chart carriage requirements of this subparagraph 2.1.5 Back-up arrangements to meet the functional requirements of subparagraph 2.1.4, if this function is partly or fully fulfilled by electronic means.
