Why join us?

Body

The new S-100 data framework will transform the way ships navigate, bringing together a range of powerful data sets into one place. 

But as we move towards a new generation of navigational hardware, what can you expect from S-100 data? And what will this mean for your operations?

Join the UKHO – in conversation with industry experts – as we explore the new universal data standard for navigation. This discussion is aimed at mariners, shipping companies and wider maritime organisations looking to further their understanding of what S-100 is, what to expect from S-100 data, and the benefits the standard can offer – from ship to shore.
