Extract

In 1989 the International Maritime Organization (IMO) published its Provisional Performance Standards (PPS) for ECDIS (Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems) and asked member governments to assess these standards and submit their findings to the Sub-Committee on Safety of Navigation. IMO intends to finalize the standards in 1993.
