Abstract A Maritime Administration/Transportation Systems Center team has been conducting a program to study navigation and communication systems on the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River with the objective of defining technologies and systems that have the potential to increase economic benefits to the users and support national defense and national strategic goals. The first volume of this study reported on the first phase of the program, identifying shortcomings in existing systems. This report contains the results of a project whose goal was to define requirements for: electronic navigation systems to supplement visual aids; additional communications capacity; and a traffic information management system.
