Dear Hydrographer,
1. Edition 1.0.0 of Publication S-102 – Bathymetric Surface Product Specification – was
published in 2012 (Reference A). The S-100 Working Group (S-100WG) has continued to
maintain and extend this publication, as directed by its programme of work and in response to
requests from IHO Member States and other stakeholders. As a result, a draft new edition has
been prepared by the S-100WG.
2. In accordance with the procedures outlined in Reference B, the draft new edition has
been evaluated by the Member States and relevant stakeholders through the S-100WG and
proposed changes underwent a development and testing phase. This process resulted in all
proposals being accepted for inclusion in the draft document, which has been assigned a
status of “new Edition” due to the significant extensions included in the Specification.
3. The draft new Edition 2.0.0 of Publication S-102 was endorsed by the HSSC at its 11th
meeting in May (Reference C). Red-line and clean versions of the draft new Edition 2.0.0, as
endorsed by the HSSC, are available at: www.iho.int > Standards & Publications > Draft
Publications Awaiting Approval by Member States >S-102 Edition 2.0.0.
4. Member States are requested to take into account the endorsement of the HSSC and
