PC Maritime ECDIS Enhanced for Revised VDR Standards

PC Maritime have upgraded their ECDIS so that it meets the requirements of the new VDR Performance Standard (MSC.333 (90) which came into force on July 1, 2014. From July 1, 2014 VDR installations must include the ability to capture ECDIS screenshots at least every 15 seconds, record the charts in use at least every 10 minutes and record all changes of chart. This requires ECDIS manufacturers to enable the appropriate outputs from the ECDIS.
