Iridium GMDSS Recognition Process
9
• Iridium is seeking GMDSS
recognition under the process
defined in IMO Res. A. 1001 and
additional guidance provided in
Circ. 1414
• The proposal submitted to MSC92
was the first step in the process
to seek GMDSS recognition as
described in Res. A.1001 and
Circ. 1414
• A detailed application will be
submitted by the U.S. delegation
to the Navigation, Communication,
Search and Rescue (NCSR1) sub-
committee for verification and
evaluation

Res. A.1001 and Circular 1414
• The GMDSS recognition process as
defined in Resolution A.1001 is yet
untried; Circular 1414 has tried to
clarify the process set out in
Res. A. 1001
• Circ. 1414 suggests that a proposal
is to be made to the MSC, and the
evaluation to be done by COMSAR
(now NCSR), which will make a
formal recommendation to the MSC
• IMSO’s role is not clearly defined in
Circ. 1414, but suggests IMSO
would review any application and
provide input to MSC/NCSR

Iridium GMDSS Application Process in Practice
• The U.S. proposed Iridium to MSC92,
with the understanding that NCSR will
perform the application verification
and evaluation; MSC92 referred the
matter to NCSR1
• Iridium will submit a detailed
application describing compliance with
all requirements of Res. A.1001,
submitted via U.S. delegation to NCSR1
for verification and evaluation
• NCSR will review the application and
make a recommendation to MSC for
recognition, or request additional
information
• Iridium GMDSS recognition is on
schedule to take place at MSC95
(2Q, 2015)
