In 2010, we developed a strategy for how we would look after our aids to navigation—Navigation Services in Australian Waters 2010-25

Nine years on, and given the pace of change in the way ships receive, integrate, display and exchange information (and use this information to navigate) we have reviewed and updated that work.

The result is Navigation Services in Australian Waters—outlook to 2030. It provides an insight to the provision of navigation services (not just aids to navigation) in the coming years.

This forward-looking, insightful work outlines the emerging trends and drivers in navigation technology and communications. It also describes the anticipated impacts these will have on the maritime industry. Importantly, it lists AMSA’s policy responses to these changes.
