IHO-Nippon Foundation GEOMAC Project
The IHO-Nippon Foundation Cooperation Project has been providing training opportunities for Category “B” nautical cartographers at the UK Hydrographic Office (UKHO) for over 15 years. The project originally started as the Japan Capacity Building Project (JCBP) in 2009-2013 and the Cartography, Hydrography and Related Training (CHART) Project in 2014-2019, and has now become the Geospatial Marine Analysis and Cartography (GEOMAC) Project since 2020, thanks to the generous support from the Nippon Foundation of Japan. This capacity building project has connected the nautical cartography community, which currently has 106 alumni from 51 countries. The skills and knowledge of this community contribute to solving regional and global challenges beyond the SOLAS obligations.
