Where does the IHO Capacity Building programme fit in? by Thomas Dehling Chairman CBSC

1. 5th EXTRAORDINARY INTERNATIONAL HYDROGRAPHIC CONFERENCE 5ème CONFERENCE HYDROGRAPHIQUE INTERNATIONALE EXTRAORDINAIRE Where does the IHO Capacity Building programme fit in? by Thomas Dehling Chairman CBSC

2. Why do we need Capacity Building in Hydrography? 1. Need for development Developing environment, growing demands, new techniques 2. Need for co-operation 3. Need for assistance Assessment, training, financial support How can we do CB in Hydrography? Where does IHO CB fit in?

3. Capacity Building Sub Committee Chair: Mr. Thomas Dehling (Germany) Vice-Chair: Mr. OlumideOmotoso (Nigeria) Secretary: Cpt. Alberto Costa Neves(IHB) IHB Directorresponsiblefor CB: RearAdmiral Mustafa Iptes

4. Capacity Building Sub Committee Basic rules Membership open to all Member States Regional Co-ordination and co-operation CB Fund Involvement of MS, organizations, industry … Annual schedule and Work Programme Procedures

5. How to describe Capacity Building In the IHO, capacity building is defined as the process by which the organization assesses the status of current arrangements and assists States to achieve sustainable development and improvement in their ability to meet hydrographic, cartographic and maritime safety obligations.

6. Capacity Building Vision To provide strategic guidance for IHO capacity building to ensure the optimum contribution to safety of life at sea, to the protection of the environment and to national economic development.

7. Capacity Building Strategy Objectives: assess hydrographic surveying, nautical charting and nautical information status in nations and regions where hydrography is developing establish and maintain close relationships with national agencies and international organizations, to identify funding and technical assistance cooperate with Regional Hydrographic Commissions

8. PHASES OF DEVELOPMENT OF HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEYING AND NAUTICAL CHARTING CAPABILITY Phases of Development National Activity • Form National Maritime Safety Committee or National Hydrographic Committee • Create/improve current infrastructure to collect and circulate information • Strengthen links with charting authority to enable updating of charts and publications • Minimal training needed • Strengthen links with NAVAREA Coordinator to enable the promulgation of safety information Phase 1 Collection and circulation of nautical information, necessary to maintain existing charts and publications up to date • Establish capacity to enable surveys of ports and their approaches • Maintain adequate aids to navigation • Build capacity to enable surveys in support of coastal and offshore areas • Build capacity to set up hydrographic databases to support the work of the NMSC/NHC • Provide basic geospatial data via MSDI • Requires funding for training & equipment or contract survey • Phase 2 • Creation of a surveying capability to conduct: • Coastal projects • Offshore projects • The need shall be thoroughly assessed. Requires high investment for production, distribution and updating • Alternatively, bi-lateral agreements for charting can provide easier solutions in production and distribution (of ENC through RENCs) and rewards. • Further development of MSDI Phase 3 Produce paper charts, ENC and publications independently

9. Phase 1Collection and circulation of nautical information, necessary to maintain existing charts and publications up to date National activity: • Form National Maritime Safety Committee or National Hydrographic Committee • Create/improve current infrastructure to collect and circulate information • Strengthen links with charting authority to enable updating of charts and publications • Minimal training needed • Strengthen links with NAVAREA Coordinator to enable the promulgation of safety information

10. Phase 2Creation of a surveying capability to conduct:- Coastal projects- Offshore project National activity: • Establish capacity to enable surveys of ports and their approaches • Maintain adequate aids to navigation • Build capacity to enable surveys in support of coastal and offshore areas • Build capacity to set up hydrographic databases to support the work of the NMSC/NHC • Provide basic geospatial data via MSDI • Requires funding for training & equipment or contract survey

11. Phase 3Produce paper charts, ENC and publications independently National activity: • The need shall be thoroughly assessed. Requires high investment for production, distribution and updating • Alternatively, bi-lateral agreements for charting can provide easier solutions in production and distribution (of ENC through RENCs) and rewards. • Further development of MSDI

12. PrioritySettings Long term objectives: Phase 1 for all Countries with navigable waters; National plan for Phase 2 and 3; Develop ‘country profiles’ to measure the state of hydrography in every coastal state.

13. PrioritySettings Evaluation of submissions (procedure 4): Phase 1, 2 and 3; Number of States benefitted; External funding; Neediness, according to the GDP; Priority within RHC; Potential for success from the IHB viewpoint; Discount for recent similar activities; General importance of CB in the region

14. Deliveringprogrammes There is a broad variety of activities High level visits Technical visits Short courses Seminars, Workshops CAT A and B courses Technical assistance Involvement in comprehensive projects

15. Deliveringprogrammes Training is a very important part of the IHO CB. The methodologies and the means of cooperation with training facilities play an important role in the success of funded trainings. priority for Maritime Safety Information (MSI), CAT A and B – depending on funding, MS only Training for the trainer (TFT), Standardization of trainings Investigation of blended and e-learning.

16. IHO CB doesn´t work in isolation The CBSC works closely together with stakeholders to find a broad basis for the cooperation for the benefit of the IHO CB Strategy. Nations support, namely ROK and Japan international and regional organizations, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), Industry and academia

17. CB Management • Need for system support (means for admin) • Support by committed people • CB Coordinators • CB Assistant • Trainers • Project manager • Consultants • Need for improved C-55 or new database

18. Essentials of IHO Capacity Building Funds (internal/external) Co-operation Prioritization Measurement ofsuccess Co-ordination Follow upvisits Joint efforts Regional approach Training syllaby Administration Training opportunities Public Relations Trainers Commitment
