This paper proposes an international trend and its implementation for an E-Navigation that can utilize of existing and new navigation tools, in particular electronic tools, in a holistic and systematic manner. IMO develops a broad strategy for incorporating the use of new technologies in a structured way to ensure that their use is compliant with the various electronic navigational and communication technologies and services that are already available. Implementation of this new strategic vision might require modifications to working methods and navigational tools, such as chats, bridge display equipment, electronic aids to navigation, communications and shore infrastructure. E-Navigation will reduce navigational accidents errors and failures by developing standards an accurate and cost effective system.
