EncDotNet.Noaa

NuGet

A .NET 10 client for the NOAA ENC product catalog — discover and download U.S. electronic navigational chart data published by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Features

  • Query the NOAA ENC product catalog (XML-based)
  • List all available U.S. ENC cells with metadata (name, scale, edition, update number)
  • Access geographic coverage, Coast Guard district, region, and state information
  • Get direct download URLs for chart ZIP files

Installation

dotnet add package EncDotNet.Noaa

Quick Start

using EncDotNet.Noaa;

using var client = new EncProductCatalogClient();
var catalog = await client.GetNoaaCatalogAsync();

Console.WriteLine($"Found {catalog.Cells.Count} charts");

foreach (var cell in catalog.Cells)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"{cell.Name} — Scale 1:{cell.ChartScale}");
    Console.WriteLine($"  Edition {cell.Edition}, Update {cell.UpdateNumber}");
    Console.WriteLine($"  Download: {cell.ZipfileLocation}");
}

Filtering by Region or Scale

// Find large-scale harbour charts for a specific area
var harbourCharts = catalog.Cells
    .Where(c => c.ChartScale <= 25000)
    .OrderBy(c => c.Name);

foreach (var cell in harbourCharts)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"{cell.Name} — 1:{cell.ChartScale}");
}

Downloading Chart Data

using var httpClient = new HttpClient();

var cell = catalog.Cells.First(c => c.Name == "US5CA11M");

if (cell.ZipfileLocation is not null)
{
    var bytes = await httpClient.GetByteArrayAsync(cell.ZipfileLocation);
    await File.WriteAllBytesAsync($"{cell.Name}.zip", bytes);
}
