Engineering Authorities Database

 

The EAD Front and Back ends are available here - note that these are always the latest versions available - those on the CD version may be older versions due to the inherent delays caused by production timescales

You should always update to the latest versions as soon as practicable

 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To download the database file(s):

 

 

 

1.

Click the link to the version you require.

 

 

2.

Select “Save This File to disk”

 

 

3.

Enter File Destination for the Selected File.

The Stn_Ship_Unit File, (Item 3) should only be used if you want to develop an authorities database from scratch. Those Stn/Ship/Units that have already started using the system must not overwrite their current version, as it WILL delete all of their data.
