ENC Optimizer

ENC Optimizer

ENC Optimizer improves the performance and usability of S-57 Electronic Navigational Charts by optimising data structure, reducing file size and enhancing display efficiency. This product is now at end of life but remains available with limited support

For Teams Managing ENC Quality and Performance at Scale

For Teams Managing ENC Quality and Performance at Scale

ENC Optimizer is designed for organisations producing and maintaining Electronic Navigational Charts, including hydrographic offices and chart production teams. It supports those responsible for ensuring ENC datasets are efficient, compliant and optimised for use in navigation systems such as ECDIS. The tool fits into wider production workflows, enabling teams to prepare chart data for distribution while improving overall performance and usability.

Improving ENC Performance for Reliable Chart Display

Optimising ENC data for efficient display and distribution

ENC Optimizer reduces data volume and enhances the structure of S-57 datasets, helping improve display performance in navigation systems. It automatically applies optimisation rules to datasets, ensuring charts are better suited for efficient rendering and use in ECDIS environments.

Enhancing data consistency and quality across chart datasets

The tool supports automated correction of data issues, such as geometry or encoding inconsistencies, helping ensure cleaner and more reliable ENC datasets. By refining data structures and applying standardised rules, ENC Optimizer helps maintain consistency across chart products and improves overall data quality.
