NOAD Schema 3.8 and Workbook 7.8 -- New Release Date -- 30 Day Notice![Indicator](images/Alert_12.png)
9/6/2022 - 2 Years Ago
As part of ongoing efforts to enhance maritime domain awareness, we continue to improve handling of essential data contained within Notices of Arrival and Departure (NOAD). Tentatively, on Thursday, 6 October 2022, a new schema (3.8) and workbook (7.8) will be released. This new schema and workbook will include: new Fuel Type fields; the Crew/Passenger Gender fields will be changed to a picklist; and the Vessel field "NEW_BUILD_JONES_ACT" will be renamed to "NEW_BUILD” in the schema. "NEW_BUILD" will no longer be a required field in submissions.
As part of this release, the 3.6 schema and the 7.6 and 7.6.1 workbooks will be retired and their support removed.
