Abstract:
This data set identifies aids to navigation, or ATONs, such as lights, signals, buoys, and day beacons, that
are intended to assist a navigator to determine position or safe course, or to warn of dangers or
obstructions to navigation. The U.S. Coast Guard is responsible for ensuring that this network is up to date
and functioning properly so recreational and commercial boaters can safely navigate the maritime
environment. Not for navigation.
Purpose:
To support ocean planning activities pursuant to the Executive Order Regarding the Ocean Policy to Advance the
Economic, Security, and Environmental Interests of the United States, the Energy Policy Act, the National
Environmental Policy Act, the Rivers and Harbors Act, and the Coastal Zone Management Act.
