Chart Convert Group

Instructions for use

Chart Convert Group refers to the operation of converting S-57 or CJ-57 Chart Group between editable and non-editable types. By grouping Type Conversion, we can meet the different needs of Chart Data editing, publishing and maintenance, and achieve efficient Data Management and reliable publishing process.

  • Grouping an editable Convert Group into a non-editable group is typically used in the data publishing phase. After the editing is completed and verified to be correct, the data is locked in a non-editable state to ensure that the distributed data is not modified at will, so as to maintain stability and authority. This conversion applies when the Data Update is completed and the data is ready for general release.
  • Using a non-editable Convert Group as an editable grouping is used for scenarios where existing data needs to be modified or updated. You can adjust and optimize the data by releasing the editing lock status of the data, but you need to pay attention to prevent incorrect modification and data loss. This action is typically applied when new data is received or when data is found to require further correction.
