The Radio Technical Commission for Maritime Services (RTCM) is a non-profit organization that develops international standards for maritime communication, navigation, and information systems [1]. RTCM was established in 1947 and is headquartered in Washington, D.C., United States.
The primary goal of RTCM is to ensure the effective and efficient use of radio frequencies for maritime communications and navigation. The organization brings together industry stakeholders, including government agencies, equipment manufacturers, service providers, and users, to collaborate on the development of technical standards and recommendations.
One of the well-known standards developed by RTCM is the RTCM SC-104 standard, which specifies the format for differential corrections used in GNSS applications, particularly in maritime navigation. [2]
It's important to note that RTCM collaborates with other international organizations, such as the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), to ensure that its standards align with global regulations and recommendations.RTCM develops standards for maritime radio communication systems, including voice and data communication. These standards help ensure interoperability and compatibility among different maritime communication systems.
