It encourages operators to practise using every function and technique available on ECDIS, such as new automatic functions for creating 'no-go' alarms, 3D ENC functionality and ECDIS safety settings. A revised introduction chapter details the latest IMO Performance Standards for ECDIS equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2026 edition contains expanded content on the Port State Control, Audits and Inspections. The verification checks are split according to ECDIS and Passage Planning verification, with the latter following the APEM structure. Each area of inspection is covered, with guidance included on how to conduct the checks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUpdated ECDIS screenshots, expanded NAVTEX content and illustrations (such as the PSC flowchart) aid the reader's understanding of best practice techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis edition of ?ECDIS Passage Planning and Watchkeeping? sets out procedures for the correct configuration of ECDIS and, utilising the appraisal, planning, execution, monitoring (APEM) methodology, highlights best practices for passage planning and watchkeeping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn ECDIS operator should:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBe proficient in setting up the ECDIS, particularly the safety and display settings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ebe aware that, while ECDIS may continuously display a ?position?, it is important to understand how that position has been derived and how to verify its accuracy. The key to effective ECDIS navigation is ?position verification? of the current global navigation satellite system (GNSS) position. The watchkeeper must regularly verify the GNSS position with lines of position (LOPs) derived from an alternative positioning method.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePractising the use of every function and technique available on the ECDIS is one of the most effective ways a watchkeeper can maintain and develop their navigation skills at sea. Learning how to use each type of ECDIS thoroughly, and mentoring others to do the same, contributes towards safer ship operation and a more effective bridge team.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn November 2021, the UK Supreme Court reaffirmed the decision that a defective passage plan effectively renders the ship legally unseaworthy. In the case in question, a large container ship went aground. The company was held liable for several million dollars when it was determined that the chart had not been properly updated. It was found that the passage plan (appraisal and planning stages) and subsequent navigation outside a buoyed fairway did not reflect a warning given in a Notice to Mariners. The warning stated that the depths shown on the chart outside the fairway were unreliable and that the waters were shallower than those recorded on the chart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eContents Listing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;
