Enquiries about attendance at training seminars are now being received, quoting the specification of knowledge of the Rsk Tool Box in contract specifications. Version 4 of the commercial software has now been released with the following new capabilities: traffic area algorithm; time of day filter option; passage line analysis; drifting grounding analysis combined with anchor handling; improved data import; fitting log; Web Map services (WMS). It was reported that the modelling of Tokyo Bay was achieved in one day and it was shown that the density of traffic around South Africa can be displayed. In response to an enquiry, Ómar Frits Eriksson said the causation factor assessment tool is still under development. The Secretary-General thanked DMA for all the effort that it has put in to the development of IWRAP Mk2. The supporting presentation is an output from the meeting. PAWSA, IWRAP Mk2 and Simulation Training Seminar November 2011. – Paper PAP23/11/1 (Report of Oman Risk Seminar) refers. It was reported that the seminar had been a success and was much appreciated by those in the region of the Gulf. It had also fitted in well with the aims of the WWA for capacity building. Ómar Eriksson said that the modelling of the Strait of Hormuz had provided outcomes that correlated well with local data. Vessel Traffic Management (VTM) The Secretary-General, assisted by Francis Zachariae, covered the actions taken since the Council set up the Maritime Co-operation Steering Committee and the Maritime Co-operation Working Group. The Working Group has almost completed its task and it was emphasised that it did not need to meet during future VTS Committee meetings.

Work Programme 2010 2014 – Workshop & Seminar programme for 2010-2014 23/13/1 refers. The Workshop and Seminar programme for 2012 and 2013 was reviewed and it was that the two workshops are being proposed for deletion: The need for the planned workshop on the WWA / AtoN Courses (4-8 February 2013) is assessed as being overtaken by the success of the WWA;
