                                    : | LN to ITU WP5B in regards with the Recommendation ITU-R.M 2092-1: Consider future development of VDES. LN to IEC and IMO on VDES topics. | 
                        
                            | Objectives of the task : | Get ITU-R M.2092-1 to include IALA recommended amendments.Propose to IMO potential useful use cases of VDES.Liaise with IEC on VDES equipment standardsInform the other organisations about advances in guidelines, standards and recommendations

                            | Compelling need : | ITU, IMO and IEC together with IALA form the platform to change maritime communications. Each of them alone cannot change anything. As IALA DTEC is the think-tank for VDES, it is our obligation to to liaise with the other organizations on our advances in this new technology. |

                            | Committee notes : | Origins : | DTEC3: A WP5B input was prepared to be submitted by the US, the council was asked to co-sign IALA. DTEC4: WP5B has after DTEC3 incorporated all proposed changes and continues to work on the revision of ITU-R M.2092-1; IEC is continuing their work on an equipment standard for VDES mobile equipment, and IMO is finalizing the work on a first version of a VDES performance standard. |
