	Hydrographic office - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Historically, the main tasks of hydrographic offices were the conduction of hydrographic surveys and the publication of nautical charts.
		The Hydrographic Office therefore actively protects the copyright of all of its data including paper charts, electronic charts,tidal data and other data and has been known to take measures to ensure that its copyrighted information is used appropriately.
		That office, as a matter of historical and semantic interest, and the U.S. Naval Observatory are still part of the command overseen by the "Oceanographer of the Navy" with headquarters at the Naval Observatory.

	International Hydrographic Organization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The IHO was the outgrowth of international conferences and congresses held as early as 1889.
		The IHO is composed of its member states (represented by their respective hydrographic offices) with administration through the International Hydrographic Bureau with headquarters in Monaco.
		The organization's function is to coordinate Hydrography and hydrographic activities of the member states.

	United States Senate Inquiry - Day 17 - Testimony of John J. Knapp - Hydrographer - U.S. Navy Hydrographic Office. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		The duty of the Hydrographic Office, under the law, is to improve the means of safe navigation of the seas, for the benefit of the Navy and the maritime marine, by providing nautical charts, sailing directions, navigators, and manuals of instruction.
		These observers report to the office by radio messages or by letter, and their reports are scanned and criticized by technical experts, and the information so gained is given to the Navy and to the merchant marine.
		The Hydrographic Office, prior to the 14th of April, was constantly receiving reports of ice in the North Atlantic.

	Titanic Disaster: Report of Navy Hydrographic Office (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		On the Pilot Chart of April, 1912, Hydrographic Bulletin of April 10, and the Daily Memoranda of April 10, 11, 12, and 13, were given numerous warnings that ice had been seen in the vicinity of the steamship lanes and naturally might be expected to cross those lanes.
		The office felt at the time that this was dangerous, because, while no ice had been reported on these tracks for many days, a great deal had been reported from one to two hundred miles to the northward, and we felt sure some of it would come south before disintegrating.
		On May 15, the Hydrographic Office recommended to the department that, in order to assist in safeguarding life and property, one or more suitable vessels be detailed to establish an ice patrol in the vicinity of the steamer lanes, and keep in touch with the ice as much as possible.

	United States Senate Inquiry - Day 17 - Sea Lanes and Steamer Tracks. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		There is submitted herewith a memorandum on the steamer lanes and the ice question prepared by the Hydrographic Office on April 20,1912, and published by authority of the Secretary of the Navy, which gives a brief history of the adoption of the steamer lanes.
		April 16, it had become apparent from numerous reports gathered by the Hydrographic Office that the ice season was an extraordinary one and the office took up the question of shifting the steamer lane with its branch office in New York and with the Navy Department.
		The wisdom of this latest change is demonstrated by the receipt in the Hydrographic Office of reports from sea showing that numerous icebergs had reached the thirty-ninth parallel, and some had even passed south of that latitude.

	Untitled Document
		At the same time the provision of all hydrographic services was changed into a contestable activity for which the Hydrographic Branch of the RNZN would have to compete with the private sector.
		The hydrographic surveying and charting operations are to be undertaken by either the Hydrographic Branch as a separate business unit within the RNZN or by private sector contractors.
		The Hydrographic Office could, however, retain its name and continued to be directed by the Hydrographer of the Navy, albeit in a newly created statutory position.

	NZ Professional Skipper - archives Winter 1998
		New Zealand's Hydrographic Office was established in 1949 as a branch of the Royal New Zealand Navy, when it inherited the Royal Navy's charts from the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office.
		The Hydrographic Office had responsibility for charting New Zealand waters, which it did by employing and training nautical cartographers who have a unique set of skills.
		One of the greatest strengths of the office was its seamless operation, which had enabled cross-pollination to build up not only a wealth of hydrographic information, but also efficient chart warehousing and distribution systems with a strong emphasis on quality.

	Proposal for a Data Accuracy Standard for Bathymetric/Hydrographic Data — Federal Geographic Data Committee (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		It is intended to serve the community of users who are involved with the construction and maintenance of nautical charts, hydrographic surveys, and bathymetric data bases.
		Hydrographic data are also important for coastal zone management, environmental monitoring, resource developments, legal land jurisdictional issues, ocean and meteorological modelling, engineering and construction planning and many other uses.
		The principal objective of the standard is to specify minimum standards for hydrographic surveys in order that hydrographic data collected according to these standards is sufficiently accurate and that spatial uncertainty of data is adequately quantified to be safely used by mariners.

		From an end-user's point of view, the distribution of official data in a SENC format has the major advantage that there is no compilation of data required on-board when the data is loaded in the ECDIS system.
		The International Hydrographic Organisation ratified the concept of distribution of official ENC data in a SENC format in 2002.
		The approval of SHOM to distribute data in SENC format is further proof from the international Hydrographic community that this is a safe method of distributing official data.
