Route plan exchange in RTZ format compatible with NaviPlanner and as used in conjunction with ECDIS to IEC 61174. The route plan exchange format is based on standardising a route plan. A route plan consists of waypoints where each waypoint contains information related to the leg from the previous waypoint. The route exchange format is a file - RTZ - containing an XML coded version of the route plan. The route plan exchange format is intended be used for many purposes. For example it can be used onboard for route plan exchange between main and backup ECDIS, ECDIS and radar, ECDIS and optimisation systems, etc. Another example use is between ship and shore where it can be used to inform the shore about the plan of the vessel, the shore can recommend a route, the shore can optimise a route, etc. Routes can be exchanged via email or Dropbox™. Dropbox v2 API support for route sharing and archiving.
