1. CHARTS 1.1. Chart 1 - InT 1 The INT 1 gives an overview of international signs, abbreviations and terms used on nautical charts. It is regularly published in Dutch by the Flemish Hydrography. 1.2. Paper Charts Covered area: Belgian and adjacent Dutch and French coasts Western Scheldt and Sea Scheldt up to Wintam 1.2.1. Charts Nautical paper charts are national and international separate large charts. Several member states of the International Hydrographic Organisation (IHO) publish INTernational nautical paper charts. These charts can be incorporated in the other members national series, thanks to the standardisation of the presentation. Apart from a worldwide INT-charts series on a scale of 1:3.5 million to 1:10 million, the number of middle and large scale INT-charts available is steadily growing. Some of the Belgian paper charts are part of this INT-charts series. These charts do not only get an international number, printed in magenta and preceded by INT, but also a Belgian chart number. These paper charts are mentioned in this catalogue. The symbols and their meaning used on these charts are clarified in the INT 1 publication. Each newly published chart features the BaZ number up to which the chart has been corrected and revised (see also 4. Revision of Publications on page 19 in this catalogue). An overview of the nautical charts is given below in 1.5.1. Chart index P1 on page 6 and in 1.7. Product Specifications Nautical Charts on page 11. 3

1.2.2. Chart sets Covered area: Western Scheldt and Sea Scheldt up to Wintam Gent-Terneuzen Canal Chart-sets consist of several loose overlapping charts, collected in a folder.

Each newly published chart features the BaZ number up to which the chart has been corrected and revised (see also 4. Revision of Publications on page 19 in this catalogue). An overview of the paper chart-sets is given below in 1.5.2. Chart index P2 on page 7 and in 1.7. Product Specifications Nautical Charts on page 11. 1.2.3.

2. HYDROGRAPHIC PUBLICATIOnS 2.1. notices to Mariners The publication Notices to Mariners (Berichten aan Zeevarenden - BaZ) is published every fortnight. The fi rst yearly edition of this publication, NtM issue 1, gives a general overview of all the messages with a permanent character. The publication features recent information of importance to the navigation sector, plus supplements and corrections to the nautical charts. The extremely varied type of information includes the dates and times of army shooting exercises, new buoys placed in the sea and recent wrecks and obstacles. The bulk of the information can be applied straightaway to update nautical charts. These updates ensure seafarers that their nautical charts always show the most recent information, thus offering them a reliable instrument during their sea trips. From 2010 on the Notices to Mariners will be published in English as well. 2.2. Tide booklet and tide tables Knowing high and low water times is of vital importance for seafarers, who have to reckon with shoals and sandbanks. The Flemish Hydrography determines the water level at the tide measuring stations located in Nieuwpoort, Oostende and Zeebrugge. Longterm measurements form a basis for computing the tide forecasts. The forecasts are included in a touristic booklet and in professional tide tables that are published every year. The tide tables contain all high and low water times in Nieuwpoort, Oostende, Blankenberge, Zeebrugge, Vlissingen, Prosperpolder, Anwerpen and Wintam for the current year. The tidal data for Vlissingen are provided by Rijkswaterstaat, the Netherlands. The tidal data for Prosperpolder, Antwerpen and Wintam are provided by the Hydrological Institute (Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium) in Borgerhout. The calculation of the tidal data for Blankenberge is based upon extrapolation. 2.3. IALA Maritime Buoyage System Buoyage is an aid to navigators and a means to complete nautical charts. It gives additional direction to seafarers, thus ensuring safe navigation. Until the 60s, every country bordering the sea had its own buoyage system which often led to confusion and even accidents. The International Association of Lighthouse Authorities (IALA), located in France, therefore founded an international, worldwide used Maritime Buoyage System. All buoys and beacons used throughout the world are described in our publication Maritime Buoyage System. 2.4. List of Lights and Fogsignals The List of Lights and Fogsignals (Lichtenlijst) has been published every 3 to 4 years starting in 1993. It describes all lights and fogsignals at sea, on the River Scheldt and on the Gent-Terneuzen Canal. Corrections and supplements to this list are published in the Notices to Mariners (BaZ). When you buy a List of Lights and Fogsignals, a list of all corrections and supplements is added to the book. 14

2.5. Tidal Streams Atlas The Tidal Streams Atlas for the Flemish Banks - North Sea (Stroomatlas voor de Vlaamse Banken - Noordzee) indicates the tidal streams for spring- and neap-tide from 6 hours, 5 hours, etc. before, to 6 hours after high water at Zeebrugge. 2.6.

4. REVISION OF PUBLICATIONS The ENCs are updated by the Flemish Hydrography Services and afterwards offered to the users through the IC-ENC (1) VARS (Value Added Resellers). The paper sea charts and hydrographic publications are updated on the basis of the Notices to Mariners (NtM). These are biweekly published in book form by the Flemish Hydrography Services and are downloadable on the website www.vlaamsehydrografie.be (click on BaZ - download list ). In addition to the Notices of Mariners (NtM), the Maritime Rescue and Coordination Centre (MRCC) also issues NAVAREA messages. These Navigational Warnings contain information needed by mariners for safe navigation. More information about the content of the NAVAREA Messages can be found in the Manual on Safety Information on the website www.imo.org The Navigational Warnings are broadcasted until the situation is restored or until the messages are published in the Notices to Mariners. The Navigational Warnings are broadcasted by Radio Ostend at regular intervals on Navtex, VHF and MF radio telephone channels (see BAZ No. 1 Art. 1/4). The IENCs are updated by the Flemish Hydrography Services on a continuous basis. Once they are finalized they are distributed for free on http:\ris.vlaanderen.be.
