The S‑100 Data Management System supports compliant S‑57 and S‑100 workflows, validation, authentication, and publication for hydrographic data producers.
The S‑100 Data Management System (SDMS) is a modular, workflow‑driven solution designed to help organizations efficiently manage, validate, and prepare S‑57 and S‑100 data products. Built to align strictly with IHO standards, SDMS supports consistent, auditable data management across multi‑user production environments.
SDMS enables hydrographic offices and data producers to move confidently from edited datasets to authenticated, standards‑compliant exchange sets, supporting both current S‑57 operations and the transition to S‑100.
SDMS is designed around predefined, status‑driven workflows that reflect the dependencies and validation requirements defined within S‑57 and S‑100 standards. This ensures data management processes remain consistent, repeatable, and compliant, while still allowing flexibility to meet organizational requirements.
The system focuses on post‑editing data management, bridging the gap between data creation and final distribution.
SDMS integrates with HPD and Caris Composers (S-57, S-100). This integration enables a streamlined workflow for S-57/S-100 data processing and quality control:
This joint solution enhances efficiency, ensures data integrity, and supports compliance with IHO S-57 and S-100 data standards.
