identifier 22 or 23 (SN.1/Circ.289),

etc.

Meteorological information symbols

consist of two parts:

• the weather station symbol;

and

• reference point and the wind

shaft.

The weather station symbol should

be presented as a circle with "W"

inscribed inside it. The circle should

be centred at the position derived

from the site location report binary

message. The circle should not be

more than 6 mm in diameter, drawn

using a thin solid line style and

using the same basic colour as AIS

AtoN. The reference point symbol

should be presented as a dot. The

Meteorological

dot should be more drawn using a

thin solid line style and using the

same basic colour as AIS AtoN.

Alphanumeric text may be used to

label the weather station.

The optional wind shaft should be

used to represent wind force and

direction as defined by WMO

No.485, Appendix II-4, the surface

plotting model. If wind force and

direction is not available then there

should be no environmental symbol.

The wind shaft should be not more

than 3 times the diameter of the

weather station symbol. The length

of barbs and pennants should not

exceed the diameter of the weather

station symbol. The wind shaft

should be drawn using a thick solid

line style and using the same basic

colour as AIS AtoN. The wind shaft

is directed along the axis of the wind

towards the centre of the station

circle and stops at its

circumference. Wind is represented

by barbs and solid pennants. The

full barbs representing 5 m s−1 or

10 kn, the half barbs representing

2.5 m s−1 or 5 kn and the solid

pennant representing 25 m s−1

or 50 kn. All pennants and barbs lie

to the left (clockwise) of the wind

shaft in the northern hemisphere

and to the right (counter clockwise)

of the wind shaft in the southern

hemisphere. Barbs are at an angle

of 110° to 130° from the wind shaft.

Pennants are triangles with their

bases on the wind shaft. A calm

should be indicated by a circle

drawn around the weather station

circle. Missing wind speed should

be indicated by placing an "x" at the

end of the wind shaft in lieu of the

wind barbs.

Note that the source of

meteorological information may be

Tidal and water level information

symbol consist of three parts:

•

tidal symbol;

•

tidal flow symbol;

•

tidal gauge symbol.

The tidal symbol should be

presented as a diamond with "T"

should be drawn using a thin solid

The optional tidal flow part of the

symbol should be used to represent

tidal speed and direction. If tidal

speed and direction is not available

then there should be no tidal flow

symbol. The tidal flow symbol

should be drawn to the direction of

the tidal current and using the same

basic colour as AIS AtoN.

The optional tidal gauge part of the

symbol should be used to represent

availability of water level

information. If water level is not

available then there should be no

tidal gauge symbol. The tidal gauge

symbol should be drawn using a

thick solid line style, transparent fill

and using the same basic colour as

AIS AtoN.

Note that the source of tidal

information may be AIS ASM

Signal station should be presented

as a diamond centred at the

reported position of the signal

station. The sides of the diamond

should be the same basic colour as

the AIS AtoN symbol.

The symbol should be labelled with

Signal station

text "SS" centred in the diamond

and the colour of the label should be

the same colour as the symbol.

Note that a signal station is a station

capable of transmitting marine traffic

signals. The source of signal station

may be AIS ASM function identifier

19 (SN.1/Circ.289), etc.

Route information is as a series of

waypoints connected by one or

more legs. Leg lines on the route

information should be drawn using a

have a centred solid triangle with

broadcast

equal length of each side and

should be the same basic colour as

the AIS AtoN symbol. Solid triangle

is centred on visible part of each

leg.

Leg lines on the route information

may be labelled adjacent to their

line with their course. The label

should not interfere with text used to

label the waypoint. Alphanumeric

text used to label a leg line should

be the same colour as the leg line.

The colour of route type "mandatory

route" should be different from other

route types.

Note that the source of route

information may be AIS ASM
