Position of navigational lights
This article outlines essential guidelines for the placement and characteristics of navigational lights on vessels. These lights, including masthead, sidelights, stern lights, and others, are crucial for ensuring maritime safety and collision prevention, particularly during low visibility conditions.

Sustainability and ROI Come Together With Forward Looking Navigation Sonar
According to Seabed 2030 and the GEBCO world map, less than 25% of the seafloor has been mapped. Additionally, in many places, the seafloor can change dramatically over time due to seasonal and storm related conditions. The charts mariners rely on are often not comprehensive or accurate enough to be relied on when making navigation decisions. Ancillary technologies play an important role in helping to provide better situational awareness. One company that is focusing on filling in the gaps of this lack of information is FarSounder
