The Australian Hydrographic Office is responsible for the publication and distribution of nautical charts and information required for the safety of ships navigating in Australian waters. The National Hydrography Directorate identifies and prioritises areas within Australia’s responsibility that require surveying to support national charting priorities identified with various stakeholders. The HydroScheme Industry Partnership Program is the commercial acquisition program that undertakes focused hydrographic survey activities to contribute to this requirement.
