Description (English):

IEC 62288:2014 specifies the general requirements, methods of testing, and required test results for the presentation of navigation-related information on shipborne navigational displays in support of IMO resolutions MSC.191(79) and MSC.302(87). This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - References to IBS have been removed as IMO has revoked MSC.64(67) Annex 1:1996, Performance standards for integrated bridge systems (IBS). - Subclause 4.9 (Alerts and indicators) has been revised to align the requirements with the IMO resolutions MSC.252(83), MSC.302(87) and A.1021(26) published since MSC.191(79), together with a new Annex F for alert related icons. - Clause 5 (Presentation of operational information) has been revised with a new requirement added for merging AIS targets from multiple sources. - Test methods have been reviewed and further guidance on testing added to Annex D. A new normative Annex G has been added for testing of colours, intensity and flicker. - Annex A (Presentation of colours and symbols) has been revised with AIS AtoN symbols, AIS-SART symbol and wheel over position symbol redefined, and new symbols added for AIS SAR aircraft, AIS SAR vessel, MSI and AIS application specific messages.

Abstract

Overview

IEC 62288:2014 - Maritime navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems - specifies general requirements, test methods and required test results for the presentation of navigation‑related information on shipborne navigational displays. It supports IMO resolutions (notably MSC.191(79) and MSC.302(87)) and defines how operational data (radar, ECDIS/chart, AIS, targets, alerts, colours and symbols) should be presented to ensure safe, consistent and unambiguous bridge information displays.

Key topics and technical requirements

General display requirements: layout consistency, readability under all ambient light conditions, legibility of alphanumeric data and icons, and separation of operational display areas.
Colours, intensity and symbols: discrimination of colours, presentation of chart and operational symbols, and mandatory symbol sets (revised Annex A including AIS AtoN, AIS‑SART, wheel‑over, AIS SAR aircraft/vessel, MSI and AIS application‑specific message symbols).
Alerts and indicators: updated alerting requirements (subclause 4.9 and new Annex F) to align with recent IMO resolutions; guidance on alert prioritization, presentation and speech output for alarms.
Presentation of operational information: rules for own‑ship depiction, radar video and target trails, chart alteration, and merged presentation of information from multiple sources.
AIS handling: new requirement for merging AIS targets from multiple sources, filtering of sleeping targets, activation and indication of target derivation.
Testing and compliance: defined methods of test and required results with expanded testing guidance (Annex D) and a new normative Annex G for testing of colours, intensity and flicker; Annex F for alert icons.
Physical and ergonomic requirements: display adjustment, brightness/contrast, temporal stability, screen size and multi‑colour display testing.
Relationship to other standards: application guidance relative to IEC 60945 and IMO resolutions.

Practical applications and who uses this standard

Manufacturers and designers of shipborne displays, radar, ECDIS, AIS displays and multifunction consoles - for product design, user interface specification and type approval.
System integrators and shipyards - ensuring consistent presentation when integrating radar, ECDIS and AIS sources on the bridge.
Flag administrations, classification societies and testing labs - for certification, conformity assessment and test procedures.
Ship operators, bridge teams and maritime safety officers - for understanding display behavior, alerting policy and safe Human‑Machine Interface (HMI) practices.

Related standards and regulatory context

IMO resolutions: MSC.191(79), MSC.302(87), MSC.252(83), A.1021(26).
IEC 60945 (general maritime equipment requirements).
Note: references to Integrated Bridge Systems (IBS) were removed following revocation of MSC.64(67) Annex 1:1996.

Keywords: IEC 62288, shipborne navigational displays, AIS merging, ECDIS, radar display, maritime display testing, navigation information presentation, IMO resolutions.
