NOAD Schema 3.8 and Workbook 7.8 -- Released

10/6/2022 - 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). A new schema (3.8) and workbook (7.8) has been released. This new schema and workbook include: new Fuel Type fields; the Crew/Passenger Gender fields have been changed to a picklist; and the Vessel field "NEW_BUILD_JONES_ACT" has been 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 is being retired and their support removed.
