Manage S-57 products

You can use the S-57 Product Manager tool to organize and manage S-57 products and their exports. The S-57 Product Manager tool can be accessed on the Maritime S-57 tab, in the S-57 Editing group. To activate the tab, you must add a feature class from a maritime geodatabase to the map.

You can do the following from the S-57 Product Manager pane:

• Create a system of series and subseries to organize products in a database.
• Move products from one series to another.
• View product footprints.
• Export a product from a geodatabase.
• Publish exported products.
• Reject exported products.
• View the compilation scale and export history for a product.
• Save exported products.

Note:

You must be the owner of the database to create and rename series, and to move products between them.

Each action is described below.

Create a series

You can use the S-57 Product Manager tool to create and organize products into series. Series are similar to folders; each series can be named, nested, and hold as many products as you choose. The product manager contains one default series named DEFAULT that holds any products that are not sorted into a named series. When new products are added to the source database, they are placed in the default series. If there are no products in the default series, it is removed when the pane is refreshed.

You can create root-level series as well as subseries under each root series.

To create a series, complete the following steps:

1. Start ArcGIS Pro.
2. Open a new or existing project.
3. Add ENC data to the map, if necessary.

   The Maritime S-57 tab appears.

4. On the Maritime S-57 tab, in the S-57 Editing group, click S-57 Product Manager .

   The S-57 Product Manager pane appears.

   Note:

   The list of data sources is based on the data sources of the feature classes added to the map.

6. Right-click in the S-57 Product Manager pane and click New Root Series.
7. Provide a name for the series and press Enter.

   The series is created in the S-57 Product Manager pane.

   Tip:

   Right-click in the pane and click Refresh to sort the series alphabetically.

   Note:

   Series that do not contain products are removed when the pane is refreshed.

8. To create a subseries under a series, right-click the name of the existing series and click New Series.
9. Provide a name for the subseries and press Enter.

   The subseries is created under the existing series.

Export products

You can use the Export Geodatabase to S-57 tool to export products from the S-57 Product Manager pane. You can view export history for products in the lower half of the pane, where export history is ordered by date, with the most recent export listed first.
