S57 END conversion

How to convert an electronic navigational chart to map tiles and how to use them to update OSM data.

I will describe the procdure I used to update the buoys in the Waddenzee. The necessary commands are stored in the makefile, which is in the ZIP with all other resources.

  1. download ENC from https://www.vaarweginformatie.nl/frp/main/#/page/infra_enc
  2. extract the ZIP make unzip
  3. convert the ENC to shape files with ogr2ogr make waddenzee
  4. open them in QGIS using waddenzee.qgs

my little guide on how to get started with writing software

Start to make software

  1. Use english language, because it's the language of the international community. There is more useful stuff out there in english than in any other language.
  2. Google is your friend! Have a question? Try googling it!

I don't want to give full explanations here, it's just a set of hints and enrty points to get you started.

There are many links in this document. Follow them and read, read, read ...
