River Information Services
An European concept for harmonised information services to support traffic-management and transport-management in inland navigation, including the interfaces to other transport modes

Services
RIS standards
• Inland ECDIS• Notices to skippers• Electronic reporting• Identification and tracking
Inland ECDIS navigation mode
• Inland ECDIS safety related information
• On board or shore based radar
• DGPS position
• AIS - ID
Inland ECDIS information mode
Fairway information on:• Infrastructure• Terminals, locks, bridges• Waterlevels, tide, profiles
• Voyage planning• Notice to skippers
Notices to skippers
• Dynamic information on the status of the fairways
• Standardisation:– Language independent standard vocabulary– Imbedded in Inland ECDIS S57 standard
Electronic Reporting
• Standardisation Group: ERI (Electronic Reporting International)
• Based on EDIFACT Protect messages • Use of standard reference data tables
• Standardised electronic reports to and from Waterway Authorities on:– Voyage– Vessel– Cargo– Crew
Automatic Identification and Tracking & Tracing
• Standardisation group on Tracking and Tracing– Automatic identification for traffic management and
monitoring– Tracking and Tracing for transport management/logistic
purposes
• Two concepts– Inland AIS based on maritime AIS standard with slightly
modified messages– AI-IP identification based on information exchange via
internet basically for strategic transport management/logistics
Pan-European Conference of
Transport Ministerson
inland waterway transportAn unrestricted inland shipping route from the North Sea
to the Black Sea.
Rotterdam, September 2001
• “Invites governments concerned to establish a Pan-European River Information Service (RIS) by the year 2005, based on standards to be drawn up in the framework of the European Union, UN/ECE and the two River Commissions, since river information services contribute to safer and more efficient inland waterway transport”.
Rotterdam Declaration
RIS in Europe status 2005• RIS is accepted in Europe • RIS imbedded in international and national policy
plans• VTMIS and RIS linked (Thematic network
WATERMAN)• Electronic Chart suppliers adopted the standards• Standards are formalised (CCNR and UN ECE)
– Inland ECDIS– Notices to Skippers– Electronic Reporting– RIS guidelines including RIS architecture
RIS in Europe status 2005• International Navigation Association PIANC:
– Guidelines and recommendations on implementation of River Information Services (including RIS architecture)
• Rhine Commission:– “RIS Arbeitsgruppe”; implementation of RIS guidelines and
standards in the Rhine area• European RIS Platform – Organisation of European policy
makers in Inland Waterborne Transport– Guidance and co-ordination for implementation and
standardisation of RIS in Europe– Umbrella for standardisation groups– Drafting the RIS directive
EC - RIS Directive
Accepted by the European Parliament in February 2005Purpose of the directive
– Establish a framework for the deployment of harmonised River Information Services in the European Community
– Set out the standards, technical requirements and conditions to ensure a harmonised, interoperable RIS for Inland Waterborne Transport
Member States have to take measures to: – Implement and operate RIS on all European Inland Waterways of
class IV and higher – Ensure that the transport sector can meet with the requirements
under this Directive
Minimum requirements
• Member states are responsible for:– Supply of a minimum dataset on the European Waterway
infrastructure to facilitate voyage planning– Electronic Nautical Charts (ENC’s) for fairway class Va and
higher– Facilities for electronic reporting – Electronic publication of “Notices to skippers”– Establish and operate RIS Centres - if the traffic situation
requires

Consortium Operational Management Platform for River Information Services
The last step towards the pan-European implementation of RIS
Project characteristics
• EC project 2002 - 2005• Project budget: 10 M Euro• 44 partners:
– Ministries of transport– Transport industry– Research– ICT companies
Project in the centre of RIS developments in Europe

rchitecture
Objectives of COMPRIS (1)
• Define the RIS architecture on different levels:
Topics architectuur
• Pan-European RIS Architecture– Reference architecture– Functional architecture– Information and data architecture– Organisational architecture
• Linked to the Karen ITS architecture for roads• Practical assessment in COMPRIS system
development and test phase
Objectives of COMPRIS (2)
• Develop RIS elements with focus on implementation– VTM and tracking & tracing
Objectives of COMPRIS (3)
• Develop RIS elements with focus on implementation– VTM and tracking & tracing– Inland ECDIS
Topics inland ECDIS• Standaardisation issues
– Notices to skippers – “Legal ECDIS”,– Hydro/meteo information
• Basis for full integration of applications as:– Voyage and route planner– Navigation system - radar/inland ECDIS/AIS– Electronic reporting– Fuel optimiser
• North American/European co-operation on world wide standard– Recognition by IHO ECDIS Ed. 4 in sight
Objectives of COMPRIS (4)
• Develop RIS elements with focus on implementation– VTM and tracking & tracing– Inland ECDIS– Cross border information exchange
