  1. Future of Navigation Future of Navigation Update CDR John Stone Office of Navigation Systems

  2. Recap of 2014 Brief • Listening Session Feedback • Status of NAIS towers • 32 eATON • eMSI Discussion

  3. Feedback Results • Enhance Voyage Planning • Electronic Geo-tagged pull of MSI for Voyage Planning • Electronic based updating of charts and publications • Leverage AIS • AIS broadcast for navigation and Marine Safety Info • AIS- ATON, but proceed cautiously • Push Notifications • SMS/MMS messaging • Email • Integrated Mobile Application w/ MSI

  4. United States Aids to Navigation System (USATONS) The primary objective of the USATONS is to mitigate transit risks to promote the safe, economic, and efficient movement of military, commercial, and other vessels by assisting navigators with determining their position, a safe course, and warning them of dangers and obstructions. ~USCG Aids to Navigation Manual, Administration Marine Safety Information The Coast Guard shall advise mariners of new hydrographic discoveries, changes in channels and navigational aids, and information concerning the safety of navigation. ~33 CFR 72

  5. Increased Demands: • Traffic has become more congested • More diverse users • Larger Ships • However, • Channels have not been widened • Bridge clearances have not been increased • Coast Guard ATON services have remained stagnant • 26,084 floating & 22,162 fixed federal ATON

  6. Updated Capabilities Updated Requirements

  7. Improving Service Delivery Modernize Delivery of Marine Safety Information Incorporate AIS ATON into system design Improve public notification of ATON changes and proposals. Modernize physical ATON system – Waterway of the Future Understand current user requirements for U.S. Aids to Navigation System (USATONS)

  8. Outdated Delivery Method Future Delivery Method

  9. Integrated Radar Pocomoke River

  10. Nationwide AIS Towers and Current AIS -ATON District 9 (5) Synthetic District 13 (6) Synthetic (2) Virtual District 1 (56) Synthetic District 17 (2) Synthetic Broadcast Through Marine Exchange Alaska (MXAK) District 5 (31) Synthetic (1) Virtual District 11 (7) Synthetic (22) VIrtual District 7 (92) Synthetic (2) Virtual District 8 (19) Synthetic (10) Virtual District 14 (2) Synthetic (1) Virtual

  11. Notifying Stakeholders Notification of ATON proposals or changes: Working with NAVSAC Reaching out to stakeholders What is the best way to reach users? Change current policy to facilitate better outreach at Sector and District Levels.

  12. Waterway of the Future

  13. USATONS Review • Engage stakeholders to determine ATON requirements and user needs : • East Coast Sea Coast System • West Coast Sea Coast System • Deep Water (Maintained and Not Maintained) • Shallow Water ( Maintained and Not Maintained) • ICW • WR (already being framed by WR QAT and JCTD) • Use WAMS like process and local stakeholder input to shape national level policy. Provide consistency. • Must haves…nice to haves

  14. Timeline for East Coast Sea Coast System Review • Now-15 September: Engage w/National Stakeholders • 15 September – 31 March: • Engage w/Regional Stakeholders (DPWs, Sector WW) • Gather Data (Feedback, NAIS, Environmental, USACE, etc) • 1 April – 31 May: Analyze Data • 1 April - 30 June: Validate Requirements with Stakeholders • 1 June – 31 July: Draft Final Report • 31 July – TBD: Conduct outreach on proposed changes/recommendations from final report
