Division 3.5.1 Additional Inland AIS messages

To comply with the information needs, specific Inland AIS messages are defined. In addition to the information content which shall be implemented directly in the Inland AIS station, the Inland AIS mobile station may transmit additional information through Application Specific Messages (ASM). This information content is normally handled by an external application, such as Inland ECDIS.

The use of Inland AIS ASM is in the responsibility of the river commission or the competent authorities.
