IMO resolution MSC.116(73) establishes performance standards for marine transmitting heading devices to ensure the heading data can be used by other navigation equipment in compliance with IMO regulations. The resolution adopted in 2000 defines requirements for THDs to output accurate heading information for other vessel systems.
