About NAVAREA VII

NAVAREA VII is one of the 21 ocean regions of the World-Wide Navigational Warning Service (WWNWS), coordinated jointly by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO). The designated area coordinator is the South African Navy Hydrographic Office, which issues and cancels the region’s navigational warnings. Helm.Warning aggregates these broadcasts daily from its verified official feed and plots them on the live map.
