2019/03/20 16:40 1/18 OpenCPN Vector Charts OCPN Vector Charts are licensed and sourced from chart providers like Hydrographic Oﬃces. These - non free - charts give OCPN access to up-to-date and proven charts for areas where those are not available for free. Diﬀerent from S-63 or genuine S-57 charts (US), these are not Oﬃcial Charts in the context of carriage requirements, as they are not issued or certiﬁed by oﬃcial bodies. Even if the content is the same. The charts are delivered in an encrypted format optimized for OpenCPN called oesenc and are requiring the corresponding oesenc plug-in. They appear like all the other vector charts in S-57 format and can be quilted and managed identically. In the case of charts licensed from the Australian AHS the charts are called oeevc due to legal reasons. The oesenc plug-in will handle these ﬁles same as the oesencs. Same as in the case of the S-63 plug-in, the operational part is managed by an outside entity, ocharts.org. The charts are available at its web shop.
