S-58 checks
The Nautical Solution supports the checks listed in the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) publication S-58 Recommended ENC Validation Checks, edition 4.1, in several ways. The checks can be run using either the Data Reviewer environment or the runtime validation environment. You have the option of the two environments for validating your data.
The nautical batch jobs are stored in the product library.
Apart from these environments, several checks are supported individually in Data Reviewer, and many others are supported by various internal components (framework, data model, and tools) of the Nautical Solution.
The Nautical Solution validates the S-58 checks on the geodatabase; thus, the S-57 file-related checks are not applicable in the nautical validation methods.
Data Reviewer environment
The S-58 checks are primarily supported by the nautical batch jobs and are configured using Data Reviewer. The nautical batch jobs are preconfigured and consist of attribute-related checks. The batch jobs can be used to validate an entire dataset, selection set, and data at the current extent, or an entire dataset, taking into account definition queries set on the feature layers in Data Reviewer.
Runtime validation environment
The runtime validation environment consists of the Feature Manager.
The Feature Manager uses the attribute batch jobs to support attribute validation in an edit session. For example, if you input an attribute value that violates a mandatory attribute S-58 check, you are presented with a descriptive error message, and the value is not applied to the feature. The preconfigured nautical batch jobs are stored in the product library. At runtime, mandatory attributes are checked using the rules defined in the mandatory attribute batch job.
Nautical batch jobs
The nautical attribute batch jobs have been divided into intuitive, focused categories. These focused batch jobs give you the ability to check for sets of similar rules without having to run all the checks for it.
Mandatory attribute checks batch job
This batch job checks for S-58 mandatory attributes and is used for runtime validation in the Feature Manager. It is also available for validation in the Validate Current Selection/Extent tool on the Production Editing toolbar and the batch validate functionality from Data Reviewer. The S-58 checks included in the mandatory attribute checks batch job are the following:
Check Number Range | Check Number |
---|---|
500-599 | 507, 509 |
1500-1599 | 1504, 1510, 1549 |
Conditional attribute checks batch job
This batch job checks for S-58 conditional attributes. For example, if attribute A is set, then it will check that attribute B has value X. This batch job is available for validation in the Validate Current Selection/Extent tool on the Production Editing toolbar and the batch validate functionality from Data Reviewer. The S-58 checks included in the conditional attribute checks batch job are the following:
Check Number Range | Check Number |
---|---|
500–599 | 508, 522 |
1500–1599 | 1503, 1516, 1525, 1526, 1545, 1546, 1589 |

Logical attribute checks batch job
This batch job checks for S-58 logical attributes. For example, the start date needs to be the same or earlier than the end date. This batch job is available for validation in the Validate Current Selection/Extent tool on the Production Editing toolbar and the batch validate functionality from Data Reviewer. The S-58 checks included in the logical attribute checks batch job are the following:
Check Number Range | Check Number |
---|---|
1–99 | 46, 47, 48, 49 |
1500–1599 | 1548 |
1600–1699 | 1646 |
Valid attribute checks batch job
This batch job checks for S-58 valid attribute values and is available for validation in the Validate Current Selection/Extent tool on the Production Editing toolbar and the batch validate functionality from Data Reviewer. The S-58 checks included in the valid attribute checks batch job are the following:

Individual checks that can be added to batch jobs
The individual checks in the table below will be supported in future releases of Nautical Solution as batch jobs. However, you can create a custom batch job to include these individual checks.

Checks for third-party validation
The checks in the table below are not supported by Nautical Solution. It is suggested that you use third-party validation software for these checks. Nautical Solution validates the S-58 checks on the geodatabase; thus, the S-57 file-related checks are not applicable in the nautical validation methods.
