Progress on MSDI NL offers INSPIRE-compliant web services for: gridded bathymetric data and, geographic names, of the Caribbean Sea, which will become available in the INSPIRE harmonized data format in 2019. It is our intention to start up additional INSPIRE harmonized web services for the Caribbean Sea, for: administrative units (maritime zones) and area management (PSSA Sababank). See the National Report for the URLs. 7 MACHC19, November 2018 National report Kingdom of the Netherlands

Conclusion Satisfactory status for surveying and nautical charting in the MACHC area. Visits to local data providers improve the quality of data sets and nautical charting.

Efforts to establish maritime boundaries with our neighbouring countries are continuing. 10 MACHC19, November 2018 National report Kingdom of the Netherlands
