What is ADP?

ADMIRALTY Digital Publications (ADP) are computer-based versions of the UKHO’s market-leading paper-based nautical reference guides – ADMIRALTY Nautical Publications.

They contain the same information as their paper equivalents, and are widely accepted as meeting SOLAS carriage requirements.

The ADP range currently includes:

  • ADMIRALTY Digital List of Lights (ADLL) – an advanced source of navigational light and fog signal information, covering over 70,000 individual light structures worldwide.
  • ADMIRALTY Digital Radio Signals
    • Volume 2 (ADRS 2) – a range of compliant, digital positional and timekeeping references to help ensure ships are at the right place at the right time.
    • Volume 6 (ADRS 6) – essential maritime radio communications information for 3,600 service locations worldwide, including pilot services, Vessel Traffic Services and port operations.
  • ADMIRALTY TotalTide (ATT) – the world’s most comprehensive tidal prediction program, bringing global tidal height and stream data together.

It allows crews to make tidal height predictions for more than 7,000 ports and 3,000 tidal stream stations worldwide.

Advantages of digital applications

They provide greater efficiency and flexibility – giving bridge crews faster, more accurate updates and easier access to the information they need.

ADP can be individually licensed, installed, used and updated. Bridge crews can make one working copy of each licensed application per ship, so each application can be used on two separate computers onboard while satisfying SOLAS requirements.

Overlays to support voyage planning

Easy to use and clearly displayed using a growing number of back-of-bridge software, including ADMIRALTY e-Navigator Planning Station, ADP applications can be viewed as a single layer on top of official navigational charts.

Helping prepare for digital navigation

Capitalising on the UKHO’s expertise, the ADP portfolio helps bridge crews to transition from paper-based nautical publications to improved digital alternatives.

Compliance

Approved by the Flag States of the majority of ships trading internationally, ADP applications provide the same level of compliance as traditional ADMIRALTY paper-based publications, for ships trading under these Flag States. In this way, ADP helps crews to navigate safely, efficiently and compliantly.

Check the UKHO’s website, www.ukho.gov.uk,for the most up-to-date list of Flag State approvals and conditions, or speak directly with your ships’ Flag Authority.

Quality-assured information you can trust

Produced by world experts in maritime navigation information, the ADP portfolio has been designed to meet high navigational standards, as well as UKHO’s own internal quality assurance processes.

Fast and efficient updates

Quick, electronic updating reduces time and effort spent making manual corrections, and minimises the risk of human error.
