Major Review Underway

摘要

The IHO, together with the International Federation of Surveyors (FIG) and the International Cartographic Association (ICA), contribute to the important work of promoting, developing and maintaining global standards for hydrographic surveyors and nautical cartographers. The FIG/IHO/ICA International Board for Standards of Competence (IBSC) generates and maintains these standards, namely S-5 - Standards of Competence for Hydrographic Surveyors and S-8 - Standards of Competence for Nautical Cartographers. These are the standards against which internationally recognised courses in hydrography and nautical cartography are evaluated.
