Hello everyone

I'm from Argentina, the links for the raster charts here are down.

According to the National Hydrography Institute they will not offer the raster charts anymore, going to a paid service for vector ENCs. They confirmed me this info in a series of emails.

The latest update for those charts was in 2017, and are still useful. I don't know if it's prudent to offer links to outaded charts, but probably is better than nothing at all.

If you think so, I can do a pull request for the catalogue at https://github.com/chartcatalogs pointing the links to the latetst snapshot in web.archive.org. I'v already tested it and works, may be I need to fix a couple of links.

Would be nice to get this working again, tell me if I can help.


Regards, David

Hola David...

Yes, please send a PR, I will merge it right away. I'm a bit affraid archive.org might be a bit slow, but if it turns to be so, we can simply host the charts somewhere else. BTW, the ENCs are not better (and completely missing essential charts like H-477 here in the south, same as the raster set was...)

Just to add: the ARG ENCs you are getting (licensing) at o-charts.org:

I'm sending you the catalogue pointing to archive.org. It's slow indeed, it would be great to be able to host them in a faster site. If you have such a place let me know if I can help zipping all together, redoing the catalogue or testing.
