Notes
1. The categorisation of hydrographic data is based on three factors (position accuracy, depth accuracy, and sea floor coverage).
2. The CATZOC attribute is the mechanism by which an ENC gives an estimate of the reliability of the source data. This is designed to give the mariner the same degree of understanding as the Source Diagram
on an equivalent paper chart. ZOC A1 and A2 require very high accuracy standards which were rarely, if ever, achieved before the advent of satellite positioning in the 1980s. Therefore,many sea lanes that have
been regarded as adequately surveyed ormany years may carry a ZOC B classification.
3. The ZOC classification attained by a survey is for the survey at the date it was conducted. In areas of mobile seabed the actual seabed may differ markedly from what has been charted, even if the survey is
only a few months old (see 1.14).
4. More information is available in NP231, including detailed notes regarding this diagram.
